While in general trading off exploration and exploitation in reinforcement learning is hard, under some formulations relatively simple solutions exist. Optimal decision thresholds for the multi-armed bandit problem, one for the infinite horizon discounted ...
We apply boosting techniques to the problem of word error rate minimisation in speech recognition. This is achieved through a new definition of sample error for boosting and a training procedure for hidden Markov models. For this purpose we define a sample ...

This tutorial examines simple physical models of vehicle dynamics and overviews methods for parameter estimation and control. Firstly, techniques for the estimation of parameters that deal with constraints are detailed. Secondly, methods for controlling th ...
Ensemble algorithms can improve the performance of a given learning algorithm through the combination of multiple base classifiers into an ensemble. In this paper we attempt to train and combine the base classifiers using an adaptive policy. This policy is ...

The exploration-exploitation trade-off that arises when one considers simple point estimates of expected returns no longer appears when full distributions are considered. This work develops a simple gradient-based approach for mainting such distributions a ...
