BirdRecorder's AI on Sky: Safeguarding birds of prey by detection and classification of tiny objects around wind turbines
Nico Klar, Nizam Gifary, Felix P. G. Ziegler +4
The urgent need for renewable energy expansion, particularly wind power, is hindered by conflicts with wildlife conservation. To address this, we developed BirdRecorder, an advance…
Near-Polynomially Competitive Active Logistic Regression
Yihan Zhou, Eric Price, Trung Nguyen
We address the problem of active logistic regression in the realizable setting. It is well known that active learning can require exponentially fewer label queries compared to pass…
Sharp Noisy Binary Search with Monotonic Probabilities
Lucas Gretta, Eric Price
We revisit the noisy binary search model of Karp and Kleinberg, in which we have coins with unknown probabilities that we can flip. The coins are sorted by increasing $p_…
A Competitive Algorithm for Agnostic Active Learning
Eric Price, Yihan Zhou
For some hypothesis classes and input distributions, active agnostic learning needs exponentially fewer samples than passive learning; for other classes and distributions, it offer…
