• Authors: Xilin Cheng
• Abstract summary: Three algorithms were evaluated for predicting the advisability of buying a house in the State of Connecticut. Linear Regression and LU Decomposition provided the most reliable recommendations. By evaluating model efficacy through metrics such as R-squared scores and Mean Squared Error, we provide a nuanced understanding of each method's strengths and weaknesses.

• Abstract: This paper presents a comprehensive evaluation of three distinct computational algorithms applied to the decision-making process of real estate purchases. Specifically, we analyze the efficacy of Linear Regression from Scikit-learn library, Gaussian Elimination with partial pivoting, and LU Decomposition in predicting the advisability of buying a house in the State of Connecticut based on a set of financial and market-related parameters. The algorithms' performances were compared using a dataset encompassing town-specific details, yearly data, interest rates, and median sale ratios. Our results demonstrate significant differences in predictive accuracy, with Linear Regression and LU Decomposition providing the most reliable recommendations and Gaussian Elimination showing limitations in stability and performance. The study's findings emphasize the importance of algorithm selection in predictive analytic and offer insights into the practical applications of computational methods in real estate investment strategies. By evaluating model efficacy through metrics such as R-squared scores and Mean Squared Error, we provide a nuanced understanding of each method's strengths and weaknesses, contributing valuable knowledge to the fields of real estate analysis and predictive modeling.

  We study reinforcement learning for a class of continuous-time linear-quadratic (LQ) control problems for diffusions where volatility of the state processes depends on both state and control variables. We apply a model-free approach that relies neither on knowledge of model parameters nor on their estimations, and devise an actor-critic algorithm to learn the optimal policy parameter directly.

  We consider the problem of quantifying uncertainty over expected cumulative rewards in model-based reinforcement learning.

• Dynamic Federated Learning [57.14673504239551]
  Federated learning has emerged as an umbrella term for centralized coordination strategies in multi-agent environments. We consider a federated learning model where at every iteration, a random subset of available agents perform local updates based on their data. Under a non-stationary random walk model on the true minimizer for the aggregate optimization problem, we establish that the performance of the architecture is determined by three factors, namely, the data variability at each agent, the model variability across all agents, and a tracking term that is inversely proportional to the learning rate of the algorithm.
