Compact approximations to Bayesian predictive distributions
We provide a general framework for learning precise, compact, and fast representations of the Bayesian predictive distribution for a model. This framework is based on minimizing t...

Beyond the point cloud: from transductive to semi-supervised learning
Due to its occurrence in engineering domains and implications for natural learning, the problem of utilizing unlabeled data is attracting increasing attention in machine learning....

Identifying useful subgoals in reinforcement learning by local graph partitioning
We present a new subgoal-based method for automatically creating useful skills in reinforcement learning. Our method identifies subgoals by partitioning local state transition gra...

Object correspondence as a machine learning problem
We propose machine learning methods for the estimation of deformation fields that transform two given objects into each other, thereby establishing a dense point to point correspo...

Active learning for sampling in time-series experiments with application to gene expression analysis
Many time-series experiments seek to estimate some signal as a continuous function of time. In this paper, we address the sampling problem for such experiments: determining which ...

Fast maximum margin matrix factorization for collaborative prediction
Maximum Margin Matrix Factorization (MMMF) was recently suggested (Srebro et al., 2005) as a convex, infinite dimensional alternative to low-rank approximations and standard facto...

Generalized skewing for functions with continuous and nominal attributes
This paper extends previous work on skewing, an approach to problematic functions in decision tree induction. The previous algorithms were applicable only to functions of binary v...

Expectation maximization algorithms for conditional likelihoods
We introduce an expectation maximizationtype (EM) algorithm for maximum likelihood optimization of conditional densities. It is applicable to hidden variable models where the dist...

Supervised versus multiple instance learning: an empirical comparison
We empirically study the relationship between supervised and multiple instance (MI) learning. Algorithms to learn various concepts have been adapted to the MI representation. Howe...
