New applications for autonomous robots bring them into the human environment where they are to serve as helpful assistants to untrained users in the home or office, or work as ca...
In this paper we address the problem of learning the structure of a Bayesian network in domains with continuous variables. This task requires a procedure for comparing different c...
Dynamic scripting is a reinforcement learning algorithm designed specifically to learn appropriate tactics for an agent in a modern computer game, such as Neverwinter Nights. This...
In a variety of applications, kernel machines such as Support Vector Machines (SVMs) have been used with great success often delivering stateof-the-art results. Using the kernel t...
Recurrent neural networks are theoretically capable of learning complex temporal sequences, but training them through gradient-descent is too slow and unstable for practical use i...
