Exact Convex Confidence-Weighted Learning
Confidence-weighted (CW) learning [6], an online learning method for linear classifiers, maintains a Gaussian distributions over weight vectors, with a covariance matrix that repr...

Multi-Class Confidence Weighted Algorithms
The recently introduced online confidence-weighted (CW) learning algorithm for binary classification performs well on many binary NLP tasks. However, for multi-class problems CW l...

Convex and Network Flow Optimization for Structured Sparsity
We consider a class of learning problems regularized by a structured sparsity-inducing norm defined as the sum of 2- or ∞-norms over groups of variables. Whereas much effort ha...

A Quasi-Newton Approach to Nonsmooth Convex Optimization Problems in Machine Learning
We extend the well-known BFGS quasi-Newton method and its memory-limited variant LBFGS to the optimization of nonsmooth convex objectives. This is done in a rigorous fashion by ge...

Learning Determinantal Point Processes
Determinantal point processes (DPPs), which arise in random matrix theory and quantum physics, are natural models for subset selection problems where diversity is preferred. Among...
