Several authors have noticed that the common representation of images as vectors is sub-optimal. The process of vectorization eliminates spatial relations between some of the near...
Kernel learning plays an important role in many machine learning tasks. However, algorithms for learning a kernel matrix often scale poorly, with running times that are cubic in t...
We generalize the Winnow algorithm for learning disjunctions to learning subspaces of low rank. Subspaces are represented by symmetric projection matrices. The online algorithm ma...
Many kernel learning methods have to assume parametric forms for the target kernel functions, which significantly limits the capability of kernels in fitting diverse patterns. Som...
Fold recognition is a key problem in computational biology that involves classifying protein sharing structural similarities into classes commonly known as "folds". Rece...
