Rough Notes

Introduces an active learning approach using predictive entropies applied to Gaussian Process (GP) classification (and GP preference learning).

The authors note two approaches to active learning:

  • Decision theoretic, (, ), minimizes expected loss after decisions are made based on collected data.
  • Information theoretic, (, a), aim to reduce model space as quickly as possible, often using concepts from information theory.
