Modeling Agents with Probabilistic Programs
by Owain Evans, et al.
Publisher: AgentModels.org 2017
Number of pages: 345
Description:
This book describes and implements models of rational agents for (PO)MDPs and Reinforcement Learning. One motivation is to create richer models of human planning, which capture human biases and bounded rationality. The book assumes basic programming experience but is otherwise self-contained.

Boosting: Foundations and Algorithmsby Robert E. Schapire, Yoav Freund - The MIT Press
Boosting is an approach to machine learning based on the idea of creating a highly accurate predictor by combining many weak and inaccurate 'rules of thumb'. A remarkably rich theory has evolved around boosting, with connections to a range of topics.
