Agnostic Boosting
We prove strong noise-tolerance properties of a potential-based boosting algorithm, similar to MadaBoost (Domingo and Watanabe, 2000) and SmoothBoost (Servedio, 2003). Our analysi...

Discriminative Reranking for Natural Language Parsing
This paper considers approaches which rerank the output of an existing probabilistic parser. The base parser produces a set of candidate parses for each input sentence, with assoc...

Bias-Variance Error Bounds for Temporal Difference Updates
We give the first rigorous upper bounds on the error of temporal difference (td) algorithms for policy evaluation as a function of the amount of experience. These upper bounds pr...

Learning One-Variable Pattern Languages in Linear Average Time
A new algorithm for learning one-variable pattern languages is proposed and analyzed with respect to its average-case behavior. We consider the total learning time that takes into...

Regret Bounds for Hierarchical Classification with Linear-Threshold Functions
We study the problem of classifying data in a given taxonomy when classifications associated with multiple and/or partial paths are allowed. We introduce an incremental algorithm u...
