We investigate a topic at the interface of machine learning and cognitive science. Human active learning, where learners can actively query the world for information, is contraste...

For a social robot, the ability of learning tasks via human demonstration is very crucial. But most current approaches suffer from either the demanding of the huge amount of label...

This paper studies methods that automatically detect action-items in e-mail, an important category for assisting users in identifying new tasks, tracking ongoing ones, and searchi...
We present a probabilistic generative model of visual attributes, together with an efficient learning algorithm. Attributes are visual qualities of objects, such as ‘red’, ...
In this paper we investigate multi-task learning in the context of Gaussian Processes (GP). We propose a model that learns a shared covariance function on input-dependent features...
