On the instability of local learning algorithms: Q-learning can fail in infinite state spaces

Urtzi Ayesta, Sergey Foss, Matthieu Jonckheere +1

We investigate the challenges of applying model-free reinforcement learning algorithms, like online Q-learning, to infinite state space Markov Decision Processes (MDPs). We first i…

Decision-Epoch Matters: Unveiling its Impact on the Stability of Scheduling with Randomly Varying Connectivity

Nahuel Soprano-Loto, Urtzi Ayesta, Matthieu Jonckheere +1

A classical queuing theory result states that in a parallel-queue single-server model, the maximum stability region does not depend on the scheduling decision epochs, and in partic…

Choosing the parameter of the Fermat distance: navigating geometry and noise

Frédéric Chazal, Laure Ferraris, Pablo Groisman +3

The Fermat distance has been recently established as a useful tool for machine learning tasks when a natural distance is not directly available to the practitioner or to improve th…

Algorithme EM régularisé

Pierre Houdouin, Matthieu Jonkcheere, Frederic Pascal

Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm is a widely used iterative algorithm for computing maximum likelihood estimate when dealing with Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM). When the samp…

FEMDA: Une méthode de classification robuste et flexible

Pierre Houdouin, Matthieu Jonckheere, Frederic Pascal

Linear and Quadratic Discriminant Analysis (LDA and QDA) are well-known classical methods but can heavily suffer from non-Gaussian distributions and/or contaminated datasets, mainl…

Online matching for the multiclass stochastic block model

Nahuel Soprano-Loto, Matthieu Jonckheere, Pascal Moyal

We consider the problem of sequential matching in a stochastic block model with several classes of nodes and generic compatibility constraints. When the probabilities of connection…
