Anyone know about "expert advice" (learning), combining predictors, etc. ? I know a bit about this field but it's a huge field and sifting through the literature is proving difficult. In particular it seems most of the problems are posed as incremental "games" where you get a time sequence of data and get to see if you were right or not after each guess. Also I'm trying to find Paul Volf's "Switching" paper from DCC98 , but it seems to be only available for pay in the IEEE library. That's especially annoying cuz I think I own the DCC98 book but I have it in my storage locker :(
