Questions tagged [machine-learning]

Machine learning is a branch of Artificial Intelligence concerned with the development of algorithms that adapt their behavior based on past observations. Examples of such algorithms include Artificial Neural Networks, Genetic Algorithms, Expectation-Maximization, and Support Vector Machines. Such algorithms are used for classifying previously unseen data and predicting future values of some unknown process.

What reward function results in optimal learning?

Let's think of the following situations: You are teaching a robot to play ping pong You are teaching a program to calculate square root You are teaching math to a kid in school These situations (i.e. supervised learning), and many others have one…

Predicting the impact point of a moving object

Suppose we have a moving object (a horizontal projectile motion as one of the most basic examples). Is there any way to predict where it will hit finally? Please note that I'm looking for a machine learning method not a closed form…

Motion primtive: machine learning vs. handcrafted

On Google Scholar there are a lot of papers which explain the advantages of motion primitive: instead of searching inside the state-space (configuration space of a robot) the solver has to search inside the plan space of motion primitives. Sometimes…
