A Robust Minimax Approach to Classification
When constructing a classifier, the probability of correct classification of future data points should be maximized. We consider a binary classification problem where the mean and...

On Boosting with Polynomially Bounded Distributions
We construct a framework which allows an algorithm to turn the distributions produced by some boosting algorithms into polynomially smooth distributions (w.r.t. the PAC oracle...

Stability and Generalization
We define notions of stability for learning algorithms and show how to use these notions to derive generalization error bounds based on the empirical error and the leave-one-out e...

Learning Probabilistic Models of Link Structure
Most real-world data is heterogeneous and richly interconnected. Examples include the Web, hypertext, bibliometric data and social networks. In contrast, most statistical learning...

Kernel Independent Component Analysis
We present a class of algorithms for independent component analysis (ICA) which use contrast functions based on canonical correlations in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space. On th...

Round Robin Classification
In this paper, we discuss round robin classification (aka pairwise classification), a technique for handling multi-class problems with binary classifiers by learning one classifie...
