Nonstationary kernel combination
The power and popularity of kernel methods stem in part from their ability to handle diverse forms of structured inputs, including vectors, graphs and strings. Recently, several m...

An Entropic Estimator for Structure Discovery
We introduce a novel framework for simultaneous structure and parameter learning in hidden-variable conditional probability models, based on an entropic prior and a solution for i...

On the Convergence of Bound Optimization Algorithms
Many practitioners who use EM and related algorithms complain that they are sometimes slow. When does this happen, and what can be done about it? In this paper, we study the gener...

Totally corrective boosting algorithms that maximize the margin
We consider boosting algorithms that maintain a distribution over a set of examples. At each iteration a weak hypothesis is received and the distribution is updated. We motivate t...
