Blending autonomous exploration and apprenticeship learning
- In NIPS
, 2011
"... We present theoretical and empirical results for a framework that combines the benefits of apprenticeship and autonomous reinforcement learning. Our approach modifies an existing apprenticeship learning framework that relies on teacher demonstrations and does not necessarily explore the environment. ..."

Autonomous Learning for Long Range Vision in Mobile Robots
"... Designing a vision-based autonomous robot that can navigate through complicated outdoor environments is an extremely challenging problem that is far from solved. However, through use of a self-supervised realtime learning strategy and a trained deep belief net for compact feature representations, we ..."

Learning tactile skills through . . .
, 2012
"... We present curiosity-driven, autonomous acquisition of tactile exploratory skills on a biomimetic robot finger equipped with an array of microelectromechanical touch sensors. Instead of building tailored algorithms for solving a specific tactile task, we employ a more general curiosity-driven reinfo ..."

and fewer computational resources. We show that, from initially random exploration of its environment, the robotic system autonomously develops a small set of basic motor skills that lead to different kinds of tactile input. Next, the system learns how to exploit the learned motor skills to solve supervised
How Can Evolution Learn?
"... The theory of evolution links random variation and selection to incremental adaptation. In a different intellectual domain, learning theory links incremental adaptation (e.g., from positive and/or negative reinforcement) to intelligent behaviour. Specifically, learning theory explains how increment ..."

AACP curricular change summit supplement—Roles of innovation in education delivery
- Am. J. Pharm. Educ. 2009
"... This paper reviews trends in higher education, characterizing both the current learning environments in pharmacy education as well as a vision for future learning environments, and outlines a strategy for successful implementation of innovations in educational delivery. The following 3 areas of foc ..."

"... This article explores a significant element of faculty development that is often missing or given little attention. The author analyzes the results of a series of Courage Study Circles, which provided time and space for faculty members to reflect upon and revitalize their identity as teachers. Th ..."
