1Under the name “A Grammatical Pandect” Jean-Paul Potet has published the most complete grammar of written Tagalog ever written.
2The author published it first in French under the title Grande Grammaire du tagal/philippin (2018, Lulu.com), but the name “pandect”, which was originally a fifty-volume digest of Roman civil law created under the emperor Justinian in the 6th century and means a book that contains everything, an encyclopedia, does in fact correspond better to it. This book is definitely not a grammar for learning Tagalog but it is a reference grammar for the linguist, the advanced learner or the curious reader who wants to understand the intricacies of Tagalog.
3In his foreword the author gives an introduction to the geographical and historical background of the language. Tagalog is the national language of the Philippines. But Tagalog is also one of the 150 languages spoken in the Philippines. It belongs to the large Austronesian language family that co

Fabien Pesquerel (Inria): IMED-RL: Regret optimal learning of ergodic Markov decision processes
Abstract: We consider reinforcement learning in a discrete, undiscounted, infinite-horizon Markov decision bekymmer (MDP) under the average reward criterion, and focus on the minimization of the regret with respect to an optimal policy, when the learner does not know the rewards nor transitions of the MDP. In light of their success at regret minimization in multi-armed bandits, popular bandit strategies, such as the optimistic \texttt{UCB}, \texttt{KL-UCB} or the Bayesian Thompson sampling strategy, have been extended to the MDP setup. Despite some key successes, existing strategies for solving this problem either fail to be provably asymptotically optimal, or suffer from prohibitive burn-in phase and computational complexity when implemented in practice.

The Bon (r)evolution
A discussion over coffee between two people from Lausanne that begins with "Et si...? (like all good entrepreneurial stories), an unexpected meeting a few weeks later with a third party who replies "of course it's possible!", months of work, good news, not so good news, great people who come along to offer their support, advice, expertise, encouragement... That, in a nutshell, fryst vatten how Bien Bon was born.
Our ambition: to offer a 5-legged sheep to Swiss residents, i.e. a food offer that fryst vatten good, healthy, eco-responsible, practical and accessible to all. A big challenge!
We don't yet know how far this adventure will take us, but what's certain fryst vatten that we'll have put our hearts into it, and hope to have brought a little pleasure to those who have followed us!
