Policy Learning

open access: yes, 2020
This is the author accepted manuscript. The final version is available from SAGE Publications via the ISBN in this record ; Learning is a fascinating topic for political science. Whether we look at comparative politics, public policy, or governance, we find that all these three main fields of political science are concerned with learning – but in ...

Learning Replanning Policies With Direct Policy Search [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Robotics and Automation Letters, 2019
Direct policy search has been successful in learning challenging real-world robotic motor skills by learning open-loop movement primitives with high sample efficiency. These primitives can be generalized to different contexts with varying initial configurations and goals.

Policy learning as complex contagion: how social networks shape organizational beliefs in forest-based climate change mitigation

open access: yesPolicy sciences, 2021
Policy learning can alter the perceptions of both the seriousness and the causes of a policy problem, thus also altering the perceived need to do something about the problem. This then allows for the informed weighing of different policy options.

Behavioural and Cognitive Behavioural Training Interventions for Assisting Foster Carers in the Management of Difficult Behaviour

open access: yesCampbell Systematic Reviews, 2007
There is a lack of evidence about the efficacy of behavioural or cognitive‐behavioural training interventions for foster carers. The programmes are intended to assist foster carers in the management of the difficult behaviour of looked‐after children and

Policy learning and policy evaluation

open access: yes, 2023
Published online: 19 October 2023 The theory and practice of evaluation have often been inspired by the motivation to learn. We explain the conceptual and causal connections between evaluation and learning, addressing three questions: what is the content of learning that is expected from evaluations? How is learning created? And what is learning useful

Learning modular policies for robotics [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2014
A promising idea for scaling robot learning to more complex tasks is to use elemental behaviors as building blocks to compose more complex behavior. Ideally, such building blocks are used in combination with a learning algorithm that is able to learn to select, adapt, sequence and co-activate the building blocks.

Anticipated Fiscal Policy and Adaptive Learning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We consider the impact of anticipated policy changes when agents form expectations using adaptive learning rather than rational expectations. To model this we assume that agents combine limited structural knowledge with a standard adaptive learning rule.

Learning Optimal Fair Policies

open access: yesProceedings of machine learning research, 2018
Systematic discriminatory biases present in our society influence the way data is collected and stored, the way variables are defined, and the way scientific findings are put into practice as policy. Automated decision procedures and learning algorithms applied to such data may serve to perpetuate existing injustice or unfairness in our society.

Policy learning and policy change: exploring possibilities on the Advocacy Coalition Framework

open access: yesRevista de Administração Pública, 2020
This article aims to advance the discussion about the influence of knowledge and policy learning on policy change, taking the Advocacy Coalition Framework as reference. We propose unlinking the comprehension of learning through change in two perspectives.
