Algorithms for Learning Kernels Based on Centered Alignment
This paper presents new and effective algorithms for learning kernels. In particular, as shown by our empirical results, these algorithms consistently outperform the so-called uni...

Stick-Breaking Beta Processes and the Poisson Process
We show that the stick-breaking construction of the beta process due to Paisley et al. (2010) can be obtained from the characterization of the beta process as a Poisson process. S...

Structured Sparse Canonical Correlation Analysis
In this paper, we propose to apply sparse canonical correlation analysis (sparse CCA) to an important genome-wide association study problem, eQTL mapping. Existing sparse CCA mode...

Bounding the Probability of Error for High Precision Optical Character Recognition
We consider a model for which it is important, early in processing, to estimate some variables with high precision, but perhaps at relatively low recall. If some variables can be ...
