Machine Learning
In this article, we propose a decision-theoretic selection strategy that (1) directly optimizes the gain in misclassification error, and (2) uses a Bayesian approach by introducing a conjugate prior distribution ...
Active learning aims at reducing the labeling costs by an efficient and effective allocation of costly labeling resources. ...

Representations of uncertainty: where art thou?
2021
Current Opinion in Behavioral Sciences
However, it is unknown whether uncertainty is represented in a task-dependent manner, solely at the level of decisions, or in a fully Bayesian manner, across the entire perceptual pathway. ...
To address this question, we first codify and evaluate the possible strategies the brain might use to represent uncertainty, and highlight the normative advantages of fully Bayesian representations. ...
Although, once again, we are not aware of using such an active sensing approach to studying fully Bayesian recognition models, we suggest that it could be a fruitful future research direction. ...

Synthesizing Safe Policies under Probabilistic Constraints with Reinforcement Learning and Bayesian Model Checking
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
We show that an agent's confidence in constraint satisfaction provides a useful signal for balancing optimization and safety in the learning process. ...
We propose to leverage epistemic uncertainty about constraint satisfaction of a reinforcement learner in safety critical domains. ...
As we will see, we use Bayesian model checking in two ways: To guide the learning process towards feasible solutions, and to verify synthesized policies. ...
