Local distance functions: A taxonomy, new algorithms, and an evaluation
We present a taxonomy for local distance functions where most existing algorithms can be regarded as approximations of the geodesic distance defined by a metric tensor. We categor...

Multi-task feature and kernel selection for SVMs
We compute a common feature selection or kernel selection configuration for multiple support vector machines (SVMs) trained on different yet inter-related datasets. The method is ...

Markov Decision Processes with Arbitrary Reward Processes
Abstract. We consider a control problem where the decision maker interacts with a standard Markov decision process with the exception that the reward functions vary arbitrarily ove...

Decentralized algorithms using both local and random probes for P2P load balancing
We study randomized algorithms for placing a sequence of n nodes on a circle with unit perimeter. Nodes divide the circle into disjoint arcs. We desire that a newly-arrived node (...
