📢 New paper! We prove the first CLTs for count-based transition estimates in finite controlled Markov chains, then extend them to value, Q & advantage functions. Unlocks principled CIs & tests for offline RL.

Farewell to one of the greatest pianists – Alfred Brendel has died aged 94.
The Czech-born pianist was one of the great musicians of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, renowned for his interpretations of the keyboard works of Haydn, Mozart, Schubert, Brahms, Liszt and Beethoven. Brendel retired from the concert hall in 2008 and spent his final years teaching young musicians, as well as writing essays on music and making his own collections of poetry.
@euro_projects This is slightly misleading, as NYC has much higher average monthly wage and land value than US average. I guess the actual conclusion might be 3-4 times higher instead of 15, still appalling tho.
📊New paper alert! (https://t.co/NBMEd0FFGL) We propose a novel CI procedure for statistical functionals in stationary time series. Our method yields (often significantly) better confidence intervals than subsampling or bootstrap. #MachineLearning#Statistics#DataScience

The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon.
The King and The Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and will return to London tomorrow.
@MattLansdell@NoContextBrits While one does not seek the office, one has pledged oneself to the service of one's country. And if one's friends were to persuade one that that was the best way one could serve, one might reluctantly have to accept the responsibility, whatever one's own private wishes might be.
