We present a virtual reality platform for developing and evaluating embodied models of cognitive development. The platform facilitates structuring of the learning agent, of its vi...
This paper concerns the use of real-valued functions for binary classification problems. Previous work in this area has concentrated on using as an error estimate the `resubstitut...
Previous research on children's categorizations has suggested that children use perceptual and conceptual knowledge to generalize object names. Especially, the relation betwee...
We derive an optimal learning rule in the sense of mutual information maximization for a spiking neuron model. Under the assumption of small fluctuations of the input, we find a s...
We present and derive a new stick-breaking construction of the beta process. The construction is closely related to a special case of the stick-breaking construction of the Dirich...
