Bias-Variance Techniques for Monte Carlo Optimization: Cross-validation for the CE Method
Dev Rajnarayan, David Wolpert
In this paper, we examine the CE method in the broad context of Monte Carlo Optimization (MCO) and Parametric Learning (PL), a type of machine learning. A well-known overarching pr…
