A Simple Additive Re-weighting Strategy for Improving Margins
We present a sample re-weighting scheme inspired by recent results in margin theory. The basic idea is to add to the training set replicas of samples which are not classified with...

The Optimal Reward Baseline for Gradient-Based Reinforcement Learning
There exist a number of reinforcement learning algorithms which learn by climbing the gradient of expected reward. Their long-run convergence has been proved, even in partially ob...

Variable length path coupling
We present a new technique for constructing and analyzing couplings to bound the convergence rate of finite Markov chains. Our main theorem is a generalization of the path couplin...

Time Domain Optimization Techniques for Blind Separation of Non-stationary Convolutive Mixed Signals
This paper aims to solve the problem of Blind Signal Separation (BSS) in a convolutive environment based on output correlation matrix diagonalization. Firstly an extension of the ...
