Study proposes efficient estimators for matrix-valued linear regression under sparsity assumptions.
We propose a practical Bayesian optimization method using Gaussian process regression, of which the marginal likelihood is maximized where the number of model selection steps is guided by a pre-defined threshold. Since Bayesian optimization consumes a large portion of its execution time in finding the optimal free para…
We address the problem of Bayesian reinforcement learning using efficient model-based online planning. We propose an optimism-free Bayes-adaptive algorithm to induce deeper and sparser exploration with a theoretical bound on its performance relative to the Bayes optimal policy, with a lower computational complexity. Th…
Quantum machine learning uses superposition to create a large ensemble of classifiers.

FlowGMM uses normalizing flows for semi-supervised learning, showing promising results across various data types.
A new slicing method speeds up sliced Wasserstein estimation.
Optimizes maps with controlled distortion for geometric tasks.
Slow feature analysis (SFA) is an unsupervised learning algorithm that extracts slowly varying features from a time series. Graph-based SFA (GSFA) is a supervised extension that can solve regression problems if followed by a post-processing regression algorithm. A training graph specifies arbitrary connections between …
A new slicing method reduces computational cost for cross-domain alignment.
New algorithms for model selection in off-policy evaluation of reinforcement learning.
Adaptive learning rates improve FTPL's BOBW guarantees in bandit problems.
Automates zero-shot classification by scoring and weighting prompts.
The recently developed bag-of-paths (BoP) framework consists in setting a Gibbs-Boltzmann distribution on all feasible paths of a graph. This probability distribution favors short paths over long ones, with a free parameter (the temperature ) controlling the entropic level of the distribution. This formalism enables…
The study optimizes free trial lengths to boost subscriptions and consumer loyalty.
This work introduces a novel estimation method, called LOVE, of the entries and structure of a loading matrix A in a sparse latent factor model X = AZ + E, for an observable random vector X in Rp, with correlated unobservable factors Z \in RK, with K unknown, and independent noise E. Each row of A is scaled and sparse.…
