Non-parametric Residual Variance Estimation in Supervised Learning
The residual variance estimation problem is well-known in statistics and machine learning with many applications for example in the field of nonlinear modelling. In this paper, we...

Heteroscedastic Gaussian process regression
This paper presents an algorithm to estimate simultaneously both mean and variance of a non parametric regression problem. The key point is that we are able to estimate variance l...

Improved variance estimation of classification performance via reduction of bias caused by small sample size
Background: Supervised learning for classification of cancer employs a set of design examples to learn how to discriminate between tumors. In practice it is crucial to confirm tha...

Active Learning for Class Probability Estimation and Ranking
For many supervised learning tasks it is very costly to produce training data with class labels. Active learning acquires data incrementally, at each stage using the model learned...

Robust bounds for classification via selective sampling
We introduce a new algorithm for binary classification in the selective sampling protocol. Our algorithm uses Regularized Least Squares (RLS) as base classifier, and for this reas...
