Searching the space of policies directly for the optimal policy has been one popular method for solving partially observable reinforcement learning problems. Typically, with each ...
Over the years, many successful applications of case-based reasoning (CBR) systems have been developed in different areas. The performance of CBR systems depends on several factor...
We show a close relationship between the Expectation - Maximization (EM) algorithm and direct optimization algorithms such as gradientbased methods for parameter learning. We iden...

In this paper, we present an AUC (i.e., the Area Under the Curve of Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC)) maximization based learning algorithm to design the classifier for ma...
Geometric methods are very intuitive and provide a theoretically solid viewpoint to many optimization problems. SVM is a typical optimization task that has attracted a lot of atte...
