Learning Distance Functions for Image Retrieval
Image retrieval critically relies on the distance function used to compare a query image to images in the database. We suggest to learn such distance functions by training binary ...

Gradient-based boosting for statistical relational learning: The relational dependency network case
Dependency networks approximate a joint probability distribution over multiple random variables as a product of conditional distributions. Relational Dependency Networks (RDNs) are...

Graphical Models over Multiple Strings
We study graphical modeling in the case of stringvalued random variables. Whereas a weighted finite-state transducer can model the probabilistic relationship between two strings, ...

Regret to the Best vs. Regret to the Average
Abstract. We study online regret minimization algorithms in a bicriteria setting, examining not only the standard notion of regret to the best expert, but also the regret to the av...
