, 2011
Many machine learning approaches in robotics, based on re- inforcement learning, inverse optimal control or direct policy learning, critically rely on robot simulators. This paper investigates a simulator- free direct policy learning, called Preference-based Policy Learning (PPL). PPL iterates a four-step process: the robot demonstrates a candidate pol-

Learning conditional preference networks

Artificial Intelligence, 2010
Conditional preference networks (CP-nets) have recently emerged as a popular language capable of representing ordinal preference relations in a compact and structured manner. In this paper, we investigate the problem of learning CP-nets in the well-known model of exact identification with equivalence and membership queries.
