    • The Quadric Reference Surface: Theory and Applications 

      Shashua, Amnon; Toelg, Sebastian (1994-06-01)
      The conceptual component of this work is about "reference surfaces'' which are the dual of reference frames often used for shape representation purposes. The theoretical component of this work involves the question ...

    • Hierarchical Mixtures of Experts and the EM Algorithm 

      Jordan, Michael I.; Jacobs, Robert A. (1993-08-01)
      We present a tree-structured architecture for supervised learning. The statistical model underlying the architecture is a hierarchical mixture model in which both the mixture coefficients and the mixture components are ...

    • On the Convergence of Stochastic Iterative Dynamic Programming Algorithms 

      Jaakkola, Tommi; Jordan, Michael I.; Singh, Satinder P. (1993-08-01)
      Recent developments in the area of reinforcement learning have yielded a number of new algorithms for the prediction and control of Markovian environments. These algorithms, including the TD(lambda) algorithm of Sutton ...
