Abstract. Approximations based on random Fourier features have recently emerged as an efficient and elegant methodology for designing large-scale kernel machines [4]. By expressing...
Spatial pyramid matching (SPM) is a simple yet effective approach to compute similarity between images. Similarity kernels at different regions and scales are usually fused by som...
Random Forests were introduced by Breiman for feature (variable) selection and improved predictions for decision tree models. The resulting model is often superior to AdaBoost and ...

Latent Variable Models (LVM), like the Shared-GPLVM
and the Spectral Latent Variable Model, help mitigate over-
fitting when learning discriminative methods from small or
modera...
Previous Multiple Kernel Learning approaches (MKL) employ different kernels by their linear combination. Though some improvements have been achieved over methods using single kerne...
