Dynamic Policy Programming
In this paper, we consider the problem of planning and learning in the infinite-horizon discounted-reward Markov decision problems. We propose a novel iterative direct policysearc...

Theoretical analyses on a class of nested RKHS's
One of central topics of kernel machines in the field of machine learning is a model selection, especially a selection of a kernel or its parameters. In our previous work, we dis...

Severe Class Imbalance: Why Better Algorithms Aren't the Answer
This paper argues that severe class imbalance is not just an interesting technical challenge that improved learning algorithms will address, it is much more serious. To be useful, ...

First- and Second-Order Expectation Semirings with Applications to Minimum-Risk Training on Translation Forests
Many statistical translation models can be regarded as weighted logical deduction. Under this paradigm, we use weights from the expectation semiring (Eisner, 2002), to compute fir...
