We construct a framework which allows an algorithm to turn the distributions produced by some boosting algorithms into polynomially smooth distributions (w.r.t. the PAC oracle...
Recently, significant progress has been made on learning structured predictors via coordinated training algorithms such as conditional random fields and maximum margin Markov ne...
Combining multiple global models (e.g. back-propagation based neural networks) is an effective technique for improving classification accuracy by reducing a variance through manipu...
Abstract--Learning multiple related tasks from data simultaneously can improve predictive performance relative to learning these tasks independently. In this paper we propose a nov...
