A Fast, Bottom-Up Decision Tree Pruning Algorithm with Near-Optimal Generalization
In this work, we present a new bottom-up algorithmfor decision tree pruning that is very e cient requiring only a single pass through the given tree, and prove a strong performanc...

EMO shines a light on the holes of complexity space
Typical domains used in machine learning analyses only partially cover the complexity space, remaining a large proportion of problem difficulties that are not tested. Since the ac...

Learning Biped Locomotion from First Principles on a Simulated Humanoid Robot Using Linear Genetic Programming
We describe the first instance of an approach for control programming of humanoid robots, based on evolution as the main adaptation mechanism. In an attempt to overcome some of th...
