Kernel Measures of Conditional Dependence
We propose a new measure of conditional dependence of random variables, based on normalized cross-covariance operators on reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. Unlike previous kernel...

Exploring the causal order of binary variables via exponential hierarchies of Markov kernels
Abstract. We propose a new algorithm for estimating the causal structure that underlies the observed dependence among n (n ≥ 4) binary variables X1, . . . , Xn. Our inference pri...

Robust matching and recognition using context-dependent kernels
The success of kernel methods including support vector machines (SVMs) strongly depends on the design of appropriate kernels. While initially kernels were designed in order to han...

Feature Selection by Approximating the Markov Blanket in a Kernel-Induced Space
The proposed feature selection method aims to find a minimum subset of the most informative variables for classification/regression by efficiently approximating the Markov Blanket ...

On the relation between universality, characteristic kernels and RKHS embedding of measures
Universal kernels have been shown to play an important role in the achievability of the Bayes risk by many kernel-based algorithms that include binary classification, regression, ...
