PREP: Training Inmates through Industrial Work Participation, and Vocational and Apprenticeship PREP: Training Inmates through Industrial Work Participation, and Vocational and Apprenticeship Instruction
Data on over 7,000 offenders were collected to evaluate the impact of industrial work experience and vocational and apprenticeship training on in-prison and post-release outcomes. Prior research on prison training outcomes failed to find any significant training effects. Related research on the economic conditions faced by ex-offenders has demonstrated the difficult conditions under which these...
متن کاملClans, Guilds, and Markets: Apprenticeship Institutions and Growth in the Pre-Industrial Economy∗
In the centuries leading up to the Industrial Revolution, Western Europe gradually pulled ahead of other world regions in terms of technological creativity, population growth, and income per capita. We argue that superior institutions for the creation and dissemination of productive knowledge help explain the European advantage. We build a model of technological progress in a pre-industrial eco...

متن کاملBootstrapping Apprenticeship Learning
•We consider the problem of imitation learning where the examples, given by an expert, cover only a small part of a large state space. • Inverse Reinforcement Learning (IRL) provides an efficient tool for generalizing the partial demonstration, based on the assumption that the expert is maximizing an unknown utility function. • IRL consists in learning a reward function that explains the expert...
متن کاملStructured Apprenticeship Learning
We propose a graph-based algorithm for apprenticeship learning when the reward features are noisy. Previous apprenticeship learning techniques learn a reward function by using only local state features. This can be a limitation in practice, as often some features are misspecified or subject to measurement noise. Our graphical framework, inspired from the work on Markov Random Fields, allows to ...
