Diffusion social learning over weakly-connected graphs

Ali H. Sayed, Bicheng Ying

In this paper, we study diffusion social learning over weakly-connected graphs. We show that the asymmetric flow of information hinders the learning abilities of certain agents regardless of their local observations. Under some circumstances that we clarif ...

Automatic Hand Phantom Map Detection Methods

Christian Enz, Claudio Bruschini, Huaiqi Huang, Tao Li, Jörn Justiz

Many amputees have maps of referred sensation from their missing hand on their residual limb (phantom maps). This skin area can serve as a target for providing amputees with tactile sensory feedback. Providing tactile feedback on the phantom map can improv ...

Active Learning of Self-concordant like Multi-index Functions

Volkan Cevher, Jonathan Mark Scarlett, Ilija Bogunovic

We study the problem of actively learning a multi-index function of the form f (x) = g_0 (A_0 x) from its point evaluations, where A_0 ∈ R_{k×d} with k ≪ d. We build on the assumptions and techniques of an existing approach based on low-rank matrix recover ...
