Title: Multi-task preference learning with an application to hearing aid personalization
Authors: Birlutiu, Adriana adrianab@cs.ru.nl, Groot, Perry1, Heskes, Tom1
Source: Neurocomputing. Mar2010, Vol. 73 Issue 7-9, p1177-1185. 9p.
Subjects: Expectation-maximization algorithms, Computer multitasking, Hearing aids, Gaussian processes, Multilevel models, Human multitasking, Auditory perception
Abstract: Abstract: We present an EM-algorithm for the problem of learning preferences with semiparametric models derived from Gaussian processes in the context of multi-task learning. We validate our approach on an audiological data set and show that predictive results for sound quality perception of hearing-impaired subjects, in the context of pairwise comparison experiments, can be improved using a hierarchical model.
