Learning to Compensate Photovoltaic Power Fluctuations from Images of the Sky by Imitating an Optimal Policy

Robin Spiess, Felix Berkenkamp, Jan Poland +1

The energy output of photovoltaic (PV) power plants depends on the environment and thus fluctuates over time. As a result, PV power can cause instability in the power grid, in part…

MDL Convergence Speed for Bernoulli Sequences

Jan Poland, Marcus Hutter

The Minimum Description Length principle for online sequence estimation/prediction in a proper learning setup is studied. If the underlying model class is discrete, then the total…

Universal Learning of Repeated Matrix Games

Jan Poland, Marcus Hutter

We study and compare the learning dynamics of two universal learning algorithms, one based on Bayesian learning and the other on prediction with expert advice. Both approaches have…

FPL Analysis for Adaptive Bandits

Jan Poland

A main problem of "Follow the Perturbed Leader" strategies for online decision problems is that regret bounds are typically proven against oblivious adversary. In partial observati…

Defensive Universal Learning with Experts

Jan Poland, Marcus Hutter

This paper shows how universal learning can be achieved with expert advice. To this aim, we specify an experts algorithm with the following characteristics: (a) it uses only feedba…

Asymptotics of Discrete MDL for Online Prediction

Jan Poland, Marcus Hutter

Minimum Description Length (MDL) is an important principle for induction and prediction, with strong relations to optimal Bayesian learning. This paper deals with learning non-i.i.…
