Present-day Deep Reinforcement Learning (RL) systems show great promise towards building intelligent agents surpassing human-level performance. However, the computational complexity associated with the underlying deep neural networks (DNNs) leads to power-hungry implementations. This makes deep RL s…
We develop a mathematical framework for solving multi-task reinforcement learning (MTRL) problems based on a type of policy gradient method. The goal in MTRL is to learn a common policy that operates effectively in different environments; these environments have similar (or overlapping) state spaces…
Optimization problems form the basis of a wide gamut of computationally challenging tasks in signal processing, machine learning, resource planning and so on. Out of these, convex optimization, and in particular least square optimization, covers a vast majority; and recent advances in iterative algo…
We propose a novel appearance-based gesture recognition algorithm using compressed domain signal processing techniques. Gesture features are extracted directly from the compressed measurements, which are the block averages and the coded linear combinations of the image sensor's pixel values. We also…
