We introduce a new model for learning in the presence of noise, which we call the Nasty Noise model. This model generalizes previously considered models of learning with noise. Th...
The goal of transfer learning is to use the knowledge acquired in a set of source tasks to improve performance in a related but previously unseen target task. In this paper, we pr...

This contribution develops a theoretical framework that takes into account the effect of approximate optimization on learning algorithms. The analysis shows distinct tradeoffs for...
Several published reports show that instancebased learning algorithms yield high classification accuracies and have low storage requirements during supervised learning application...
As learning agents move from research labs to the real world, it is increasingly important that human users, including those without programming skills, be able to teach agents de...
