Reinforcement learning is an effective technique for learning action policies in discrete stochastic environments, but its efficiency can decay exponentially with the size of the ...
We consider incorporating action elimination procedures in reinforcement learning algorithms. We suggest a framework that is based on learning an upper and a lower estimates of th...
Variational Bayesian (VB) methods are typically only applied to models in the conjugate-exponential family using the variational Bayesian expectation maximisation (VB EM) algorith...

Many problems in areas such as Natural Language Processing, Information Retrieval, or Bioinformatic involve the generic task of sequence labeling. In many cases, the aim is to assi...
We consider model-based reinforcement learning in finite Markov Decision Processes (MDPs), focussing on so-called optimistic strategies. Optimism is usually implemented by carryin...
