In this brief paper, we present a naive aggregation algorithm for a typical learning problem with expert advice setting, in which the task of improving generalization, i.e., model validation, is embedded in the learning process as a…
We consider a cooperative system identification scenario in which an expert agent (teacher) knows a correct, or at least a good, model of the system and aims to assist a learner-agent (student), but cannot directly transfer its knowledge to…
Creating impact in real-world settings requires artificial intelligence techniques to span the full pipeline from data, to predictive models, to decisions. These components are typically approached separately: a machine learning model is…
