Title: Yi Su: Innovator in Data Personalization and Model Adaptation
Introduction
Yi Su is a notable inventor based in Baltimore, MD (US). He has made significant contributions to the fields of data personalization and model adaptation, holding a total of 2 patents. His work focuses on enhancing the effectiveness of data usage and improving model performance through innovative algorithms.
Latest Patents
Yi Su's latest patents include a "System for effective use of data for personalization." This invention involves off-policy evaluation of a new 'target' policy using historical data gathered from a previous 'logging' policy. The system estimates the performance of the target policy by employing either a quality-based or quality-agnostic estimator. The quality-agnostic estimator evaluates an importance weight based on a threshold, clipping it when necessary to provide a fixed upper bound. In contrast, the quality-based estimator incorporates the quality of the reward predictor to modify the importance weight.
Another significant patent is the "Boosting algorithm for ranking model adaptation." This invention allows for model adaptation by taking a general model trained with a large set of training data and refining it using a smaller, domain-specific training dataset. The Boosting Algorithm is utilized to select an optimal basis function that minimizes the model's error as it is iteratively adapted to a different domain.
