Distribution calibration for regression

H Song, T Diethe, M Kull… - … Conference on Machine …, 2019 - proceedings.mlr.press
We are concerned with obtaining well-calibrated output distributions from regression
models. Such distributions allow us to quantify the uncertainty that the model has regarding …

Off-dynamics reinforcement learning: Training for transfer with domain classifiers

B Eysenbach, S Asawa, S Chaudhari, S Levine… - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2020 - arxiv.org
We propose a simple, practical, and intuitive approach for domain adaptation in
reinforcement learning. Our approach stems from the idea that the agent's experience in the …

Conditional density estimation with neural networks: Best practices and benchmarks

J Rothfuss, F Ferreira, S Walther, M Ulrich - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2019 - arxiv.org
Given a set of empirical observations, conditional density estimation aims to capture the
statistical relationship between a conditional variable $\mathbf {x} $ and a dependent …

Converting high-dimensional regression to high-dimensional conditional density estimation

R Izbicki, A B. Lee - 2017 - projecteuclid.org
There is a growing demand for nonparametric conditional density estimators (CDEs) in fields
such as astronomy and economics. In astronomy, for example, one can dramatically improve …

Nonparametric conditional density estimation in a high-dimensional regression setting

R Izbicki, AB Lee - Journal of Computational and Graphical …, 2016 - Taylor & Francis
In some applications (eg, in cosmology and economics), the regression E [Z| x] is not
adequate to represent the association between a predictor x and a response Z because of …

Deep Transfer -Learning for Offline Non-Stationary Reinforcement Learning

J Chai, E Chen, J Fan - arxiv preprint arxiv:2501.04870, 2025 - arxiv.org
In dynamic decision-making scenarios across business and healthcare, leveraging sample
trajectories from diverse populations can significantly enhance reinforcement learning (RL) …

Linking losses for density ratio and class-probability estimation

A Menon, CS Ong - International Conference on Machine …, 2016 - proceedings.mlr.press
Given samples from two densities p and q, density ratio estimation (DRE) is the problem of
estimating the ratio p/q. Two popular discriminative approaches to DRE are KL importance …

Pricing kernel monotonicity and conditional information

M Linn, S Shive, T Shumway - The Review of Financial Studies, 2018 - academic.oup.com
A large literature finds evidence that pricing kernels nonparametrically estimated from option
prices and historical returns are not monotonically decreasing in market index returns. We …

Neural-kernel conditional mean embeddings

E Shimizu, K Fukumizu, D Sejdinovic - arxiv preprint arxiv:2403.10859, 2024 - arxiv.org
Kernel conditional mean embeddings (CMEs) offer a powerful framework for representing
conditional distribution, but they often face scalability and expressiveness challenges. In this …

Adapting to latent subgroup shifts via concepts and proxies

I Alabdulmohsin, N Chiou, A D'Amour… - International …, 2023 - proceedings.mlr.press
We address the problem of unsupervised domain adaptation when the source domain
differs from the target domain because of a shift in the distribution of a latent subgroup …
