Multi-classification by categorical features via clustering
We derive a generalization bound for multiclassification schemes based on grid clustering in categorical parameter product spaces. Grid clustering partitions the parameter space i...

Multiple instance ranking
This paper introduces a novel machine learning model called multiple instance ranking (MIRank) that enables ranking to be performed in a multiple instance learning setting. The mo...

Multi-task compressive sensing with Dirichlet process priors
Compressive sensing (CS) is an emerging field that, under appropriate conditions, can significantly reduce the number of measurements required for a given signal. In many applicat...

Stopping conditions for exact computation of leave-one-out error in support vector machines
We propose a new stopping condition for a Support Vector Machine (SVM) solver which precisely reflects the objective of the Leave-OneOut error computation. The stopping condition ...

ManifoldBoost: stagewise function approximation for fully-, semi- and un-supervised learning
We introduce a boosting framework to solve a classification problem with added manifold and ambient regularization costs. It allows for a natural extension of boosting into both s...

Exploration scavenging
We examine the problem of evaluating a policy in the contextual bandit setting using only observations collected during the execution of another policy. We show that policy evalua...
