Ensemble Reinforcement Learning: A Survey
Reinforcement Learning (RL) has emerged as a highly effective technique for
addressing various scientific and applied problems. Despite its success,
certain complex tasks remain challenging to be addressed solely with a single
model and algorithm. In response, ensemble reinforcement learning (ERL), a
promising approach that combines the benefits of both RL and ensemble learning
(EL), has gained widespread popularity. ERL leverages multiple models or
training algorithms to comprehensively explore the problem space and possesses
strong generalization capabilities. In this study, we present a comprehensive
survey on ERL to provide readers with an overview of recent advances and
challenges in the field. First, we introduce the background and motivation for
ERL. Second, we analyze in detail the strategies that have been successfully
applied in ERL, including model averaging, model selection, and model
combination. Subsequently, we summarize the datasets and analyze algorithms
used in relevant studies. Finally, we outline several open questions and
discuss future research directions of ERL. By providing a guide for future
scientific research and engineering applications, this survey contributes to
the advancement of ERL.Comment: 42 page
A Comprehensive Survey of Deep Learning in Remote Sensing: Theories, Tools and Challenges for the Community
In recent years, deep learning (DL), a re-branding of neural networks (NNs),
has risen to the top in numerous areas, namely computer vision (CV), speech
recognition, natural language processing, etc. Whereas remote sensing (RS)
possesses a number of unique challenges, primarily related to sensors and
applications, inevitably RS draws from many of the same theories as CV; e.g.,
statistics, fusion, and machine learning, to name a few. This means that the RS
community should be aware of, if not at the leading edge of, of advancements
like DL. Herein, we provide the most comprehensive survey of state-of-the-art
RS DL research. We also review recent new developments in the DL field that can
be used in DL for RS. Namely, we focus on theories, tools and challenges for
the RS community. Specifically, we focus on unsolved challenges and
opportunities as it relates to (i) inadequate data sets, (ii)
human-understandable solutions for modelling physical phenomena, (iii) Big
Data, (iv) non-traditional heterogeneous data sources, (v) DL architectures and
learning algorithms for spectral, spatial and temporal data, (vi) transfer
learning, (vii) an improved theoretical understanding of DL systems, (viii)
high barriers to entry, and (ix) training and optimizing the DL.Comment: 64 pages, 411 references. To appear in Journal of Applied Remote

Incremental sharing using machine learning
Generally, the present disclosure is directed to incrementally sharing resources, e.g., documents, media, etc., using machine-learned models. In particular, in some implementations, when the user provides permission to access user data, the systems and methods of the present disclosure can include or otherwise leverage one or more machine-learned models to suggest files on a device or in the cloud that a user can share based on documents or other media that the user has already shown intent to share.
Machine learning is used to determine resources, e.g., documents, media, links, etc., that have features with correlation with the resource the user has expressed an intent to share. Such documents, media, links, etc. are suggested to the user as additionally shareable resources. When the user provides consent to utilize data indicative of usage context, such context, e.g., the breadth of share (public, private, specific individual, etc.), device state, context of sharing, etc. may be used as inputs to the machine learning model to determine sharing suggestions
