Imitation Learning in Discounted Linear MDPs without exploration assumptions

Volkan Cevher, Efstratios Panteleimon Skoulakis, Luca Viano

We present a new algorithm for imitation learning in infinite horizon linear MDPs dubbed ILARL which greatly improves the bound on the number of trajectories that the learner needs to sample from the environment. In particular, we re- move exploration assu ...

GELEX: Generative AI-Hybrid System for Example-Based Learning

Paola Mejia Domenzain, Aybars Yazici, Tanja Christina Käser Jacober, Jibril Albachir Frej

Traditional example-based learning methods are often limited by static, expert-created content. Hence, they face challenges in scalability, engagement, and effectiveness, as some learners might struggle to relate to the examples or find them relevant. To a ...

Incorporating Projective Geometry into Deep Learning

Michal Jan Tyszkiewicz

In this thesis we explore the applications of projective geometry, a mathematical theory of the relation between 3D scenes and their 2D images, in modern learning-based computer vision systems. This is an interesting research question which contradicts the ...

Generative AI-Enabled Conversational Interaction to Support Self-Directed Learning Experiences in Transversal Computational Thinking

Denis Gillet, Juan Carlos Farah, Adrian Christian Holzer, Abdessalam Ouaazki

As computational thinking (CT) becomes increasingly acknowledged as an important skill in education, self-directed learning (SDL) emerges as a key strategy for developing this capability. The advent of generative AI (GenAI) conversational agents has disrup ...

Evaluation of teachers’ orchestration tools usage in robotic classrooms

Pierre Dillenbourg, Barbara Bruno, Aditi Kothiyal, Sina Shahmoradi

Teachers’ self-efficacy in managing classrooms is an important consideration when it comes to bringing educational robots to classrooms. Orchestration tools support teachers by providing awareness indicators of students’ progress as well as levers to contr ...

Revisiting adversarial training for the worst-performing class

Volkan Cevher, Grigorios Chrysos, Thomas Michaelsen Pethick

Despite progress in adversarial training (AT), there is a substantial gap between the topperforming and worst-performing classes in many datasets. For example, on CIFAR10, the accuracies for the best and worst classes are 74% and 23%, respectively. We argu ...

Supporting Teachers' Orchestration in Robot-mediated Classrooms

Sina Shahmoradi

To bring educational robots to classrooms, we need to consider teachers' self-efficacy and challenges in managing a robot-mediated classroom, and how to support them in overcoming these challenges. Orchestration tools are designed to support teachers by pr ...

Finding Paths for Explainable MOOC Recommendation: A Learner Perspective

Tatjana Nazaretsky, Tanja Christina Käser Jacober, Jibril Albachir Frej

The increasing availability of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) has created a necessity for personalized course recommendation systems. These systems often combine neural networks with Knowledge Graphs (KGs) to achieve richer representations of learners ...
