Learning to export
There is strong evidence that exporting firms are better. This correlation can potentially arise from many alternative casual models. In this paper, we utilise the natural experiments offered by transitioning into export in a dataset of Indian firms from 1990 to 2011, where each firm which made the transition is matched against one which did not. While exporting firms become bigger, there is no...
متن کاملQ-learning with Nearest Neighbors
We consider the problem of model-free reinforcement learning for infinite-horizon discounted Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) with a continuous state space and unknown transition kernels, when only a single sample path of the system is available. We focus on the classical approach of Q-learning where the goal is to learn the optimal Q-function. We propose the Nearest Neighbor Q-Learning approac...
متن کاملGrowth Aspects of Labor Market Policy – Learning from the Neighbors
By comparing the clearly more effective labor market policies of three neighboring countries with those of Germany, the goal of this project was to collect evidence of effective employment policy reform strategies. Central to this evaluation were questions of labor law regulations, active labor market policies, unemployment benefits as well as wage policy and tax burdens. The following studies ...
متن کاملLearning Similarity Matrix from Constraints of Relational Neighbors
This paper describes a method of learning similarity matrix from pairwise constraints assumed used under the situation such as interactive clustering, where we can expect little user feedback. With the small number of pairwise constraints used, our method attempts to use additional constraints induced by the affinity relationship between constrained data and their neighbors. The similarity matr...
متن کاملk*-Nearest Neighbors: From Global to Local
The weighted k-nearest neighbors algorithm is one of the most fundamental nonparametric methods in pattern recognition and machine learning. The question of setting the optimal number of neighbors as well as the optimal weights has received much attention throughout the years, nevertheless this problem seems to have remained unsettled. In this paper we offer a simple approach to locally weighte...
