Learning Privacy Preferences [PDF]
2011 Sixth International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security, 2011 This paper suggests a machine learning approach to preference generation in the context of privacy agents. With this solution, users are relieved from the complex task of specifying their preferences beforehand, disconnected from actual situations. Instead, historical privacy decisions are used as a basis for providing privacy recommendations to users ...

Learning Innate Face Preferences [PDF]
Neural Computation, 2003 New born humans preferentially orient to facelike patterns at birth, but months of experience with faces are required for full face processing abilities to develop. Several models have been proposed for how the interaction of genetic and evironmental influences can explain these data.

Preferences, Homophily, and Social Learning [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2013 We study a sequential model of Bayesian social learning in networks in which agents have heterogeneous preferences, and neighbors tend to have similar preferences—a phenomenon known as homophily. We find that the density of network connections determines the impact of preference diversity and homophily on learning. When connections are sparse, diverse

OPPORTUNITY AND PREFERENCE LEARNING [PDF]
Economics and Philosophy, 2015 Abstract:Robert Sugden has suggested a normative standard of freedom as ‘opportunity’ that is supposed to help realign normative economics – with its traditional rational choice orientation – with behavioural economics. While allowing preferences to be incoherent, he wants to maintain the anti-paternalist stance of orthodox welfare economics.

The Preference Learning Toolbox
CoRR, 2015 Preference learning (PL) is a core area of machine learning that handles datasets with ordinal relations. As the number of generated data of ordinal nature is increasing, the importance and role of the PL field becomes central within machine learning research and practice.

Factors Influencing Students’ Attitudes and Readiness towards Active Online Learning in Physics
Education Sciences, 2022 Many factors can influence students’ attitudes and their readiness to learn, especially with respect to learning physics online. Traditional online learning, where the teacher is the sole speaker, is inappropriate for learning physics because there must ...
