Camera Adaptation for Fundus-Image-Based CVD Risk Estimation

Zhihong Lin, Danli Shi, Donghao Zhang +3

Recent studies have validated the association between cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk and retinal fundus images. Combining deep learning (DL) and portable fundus cameras will ena…

UCB Momentum Q-learning: Correcting the bias without forgetting

Pierre Menard, Omar Darwiche Domingues, Xuedong Shang +1

We propose UCBMQ, Upper Confidence Bound Momentum Q-learning, a new algorithm for reinforcement learning in tabular and possibly stage-dependent, episodic Markov decision process.…

Stochastic Bandits with Vector Losses: Minimizing -Norm of Relative Losses

Xuedong Shang, Han Shao, Jian Qian

Multi-armed bandits are widely applied in scenarios like recommender systems, for which the goal is to maximize the click rate. However, more factors should be considered, e.g., us…

Gamification of Pure Exploration for Linear Bandits

Rémy Degenne, Pierre Ménard, Xuedong Shang +1

We investigate an active pure-exploration setting, that includes best-arm identification, in the context of linear stochastic bandits. While asymptotically optimal algorithms exist…

Fixed-Confidence Guarantees for Bayesian Best-Arm Identification

Xuedong Shang, Rianne de Heide, Emilie Kaufmann +2

We investigate and provide new insights on the sampling rule called Top-Two Thompson Sampling (TTTS). In particular, we justify its use for fixed-confidence best-arm identification…
