Gradient Descent for General Reinforcement Learning
A simple learning rule is derived, the VAPS algorithm, which can be instantiated to generate a wide range of new reinforcementlearning algorithms. These algorithms solve a number ...

Probabilistic Modeling for Face Orientation Discrimination: Learning from Labeled and Unlabeled Data
This paper presents probabilistic modeling methods to solve the problem of discriminating between five facial orientations with very little labeled data. Three models are explored...

Approximate Learning of Dynamic Models
Inference is a key component in learning probabilistic models from partially observable data. When learning temporal models, each of the many inference phases requires a complete ...

A Phase Space Approach to Minimax Entropy Learning and the Minutemax Approximations
There has been much recent work on measuring image statistics and on learning probability distributions on images. We observe that the mapping from images to statistics is many-to...

Coding Time-Varying Signals Using Sparse, Shift-Invariant Representations
A common way to represent a time series is to divide it into shortduration blocks, each of which is then represented by a set of basis functions. A limitation of this approach, ho...
