Consider a supervised learning problem in which examples contain both numerical- and text-valued features. To use traditional featurevector-based learning methods, one could treat...

We propose a new approach to reinforcement learning which combines least squares function approximation with policy iteration. Our method is model-free and completely off policy. ...
We propose a new phrase-based translation model and decoding algorithm that enables us to evaluate and compare several, previously proposed phrase-based translation models. Within...
Manual generation of training examples for supervised learning is an expensive process. One way to reduce this cost is to produce training instances that are highly informative. T...
