Machine learning (ML) is an inherently interdisciplinary field, built on concepts from artificial intelligence, cognitive science, probability and statistics, information theory, philosophy, control theory, psychology, neurobiology and other fields. ML techniques have found widespread applications in biology and medicine. Medicine is largely an evidence-driven discipline where large quantities of relatively high-quality data are collected and stored in databases. The medical data are highly heterogeneous and are stored in numerical, text, image, sound and video formats. They include clinical data (symptoms, demographics, biochemical tests, diagnoses and various imaging, video, vital signals, etc), logistics data (charges and costs, policies, guidelines, clinical trials, etc), bibliographical data, and molecular data. Bioinformatics, which concerns the latter type of data, conceptualizes biology in terms of molecules and applies "informatics" techniques, derived from disciplines such as applied mathematics, computer science and statistics to understand and organize the information associated with these molecules on a large scale. In other words, bioinformatics encompasses analysis of molecular data expressed in the form of nucleotides, amino acids, DNA, RNA, pedtides and proteins. The sheer amount and breadth of data requires development of efficient methods for knowledge/information extraction that can cope with the size and complexity of the accumulated data. There are numerous examples of successful applications of machine learning in areas of diagnosis and prevention, prognosis and therapeutic decision making. |

During the last decade, many areas of Bayesian machine learning have reached a high level of maturity. This has resulted in a variety of theoretically sound and efficient algorithms for learning and inference in the presence of uncertainty. However, in the context of control, robotics, and reinforcement learning, uncertainty has not yet been treated with comparable rigor despite its central role in risk-sensitive control, sensori-motor control, robust control, and cautious control. A consistent treatment of uncertainty is also essential when dealing with stochastic policies, incomplete state information, and exploration strategies.
A typical situation where uncertainty comes into play is when the exact state transition dynamics are unknown and only limited or no expert knowledge is available and/or affordable. One option is to learn a model from data. However, if the model is too far off, this approach can result in arbitrarily bad solutions. This model bias can be sidestepped by the use of flexible model-free methods. The disadvantage of model-free methods is that they do not generalize and often make less efficient use of data. Therefore, they often need more trials than feasible to solve a problem on a real-world system. A probabilistic model could be used for efficient use of data while alleviating model bias by explicitly representing and incorporating uncertainty.
The use of probabilistic approaches requires (approximate) inference algorithms, where Bayesian machine learning can come into play. Although probabilistic modeling and inference conceptually fit into this context, they are not widespread in robotics, control, and reinforcement learning. Hence, this workshop aims to bring researchers together to discuss the need, the theoretical properties, and the practical implications of probabilistic methods in control, robotics, and reinforcement learning.
One particular focus will be on probabilistic reinforcement learning approaches that profit recent developments in optimal control which show that the problem can be substantially simplified if certain structure is imposed. The simplifications include linearity of the (Hamilton-Jacobi) Bellman equation. The duality with Bayesian estimation allow for analytical computation of the optimal control laws and closed form expressions of the optimal value functions. |

This is the thirteenth conference on Artificial Intelligence and Statistics (AISTATS*2010), an interdisciplinary gathering of researchers at the intersection of computer science, artificial intelligence, statistics, and related areas. Since its inception the AISTATS conference has been held every two years in North America. At the 2009 conference, with the support of the EU funded PASCAL II Network of Excellence (www.pascal-network.org), the decision was made to bring the conference to Europe for the first time. Starting in 2010 AISTATS will be held every year, alternating the venue between Europe and North America. The Conference Programme will include invited talks, contributed talks, and posters. Contributed talks and posters are selected via a rigorous peer-review process based on 8 page papers. Accepted papers will be published as a special issue in the Journal of Machine Learning Research (JMLR) Workshop and Conference Proceedings Series. |

The continuing development of a field requires a healthy exchange
between theoretical advances and experimental observations. The
purpose of this special issue is to assess progress in empirical
evaluations of reinforcement-learning algorithms and to encourage the
adoption of effective experimental methodologies. The last several
years have seen new trends in uniform software interfaces between
environments and learning algorithms, community comparisons and
competitions, and an increased interest in experimenting with
reinforcement learning in embedded systems.
The emphasis of the special issue is not on the development of novel
algorithms. Instead, papers will be assessed in terms of the insights
they provide about how best to assess performance in reinforcement
learning, i.e., the "meta" problem of evaluating the evaluation
methodologies themselves. In particular, papers presenting empirical
results should also discuss what those results reveal about the
strengths and weaknesses of the evaluation methodology. Similarly,
papers describing real-life applications should make clear what
limitations the application exposes in 'off-the-shelf' methods, how
the employed method had to be modified to address real-world
complications, and what the results show that could not be learned
from experiments in 'toy' domains. Papers proposing new evaluation
methodologies should include illustrative empirical results offering
insights that would be difficult to obtain with conventional
methodologies. Finally, papers proposing new evaluation methodologies
should also compare and contrast with methodologies in related areas,
e.g. supervised learning, explaining why such methodologies are not
adequate and what ideas, if any, can be borrowed from them. |

Machine learning in multi-dimensional and statistical signal
processing is concerned with tasks such as detection, estimation,
prediction, classification, and optimization. Typical approaches are
modern implementations of supervised, unsupervised, reinforcement
and semi-supervised learning, for instance using probabilistic
modeling and kernel methods.
Machine learning has a wide range of applications: adaptive filtering,
time-series analysis, pattern recognition, image processing,
computer vision, data mining and visualization, information retrieval,
robot control, data fusion, blind source separation, sparse and
structured representations, context modeling, multimodal interfaces,
neuroinformatics, bioinformatics, sensor networks, cognitive radio,
etc. Also, in many applications, hardware implementations are
important due to large amounts of data to be processed and real-time
processing requirements. |
