An important theoretical tool in machine learning is the bias/variance decomposition of the generalization error. It was introduced for the mean square error in [3]. The bias/vari...
LASSO (Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator) is a useful tool to achieve the shrinkage and variable selection simultaneously. Since LASSO uses the L1 penalty, the optim...
Jensen's inequality is a powerful mathematical tool and one of the workhorses in statistical learning. Its applications therein include the EM algorithm, Bayesian estimation ...
Verification of reachability properties for probabilistic systems is usually based on variants of Markov processes. Current methods assume an exact model of the dynamic behavior a...
