Deterministic annealing for semi-supervised kernel machines
An intuitive approach to utilizing unlabeled data in kernel-based classification algorithms is to simply treat unknown labels as additional optimization variables. For marginbased...

Curves of width one and the river shore problem
We consider the problem of finding the shortest curve in the plane that has unit width. This problem was first posed as the “river shore” puzzle by Ogilvy (1972) and is rela...

Thin Partitions: Isoperimetric Inequalities and a Sampling Algorithm for Star Shaped Bodies
Star-shaped bodies are an important nonconvex generalization of convex bodies (e.g., linear programming with violations). Here we present an efficient algorithm for sampling a giv...

Simpler knowledge-based support vector machines
If appropriately used, prior knowledge can significantly improve the predictive accuracy of learning algorithms or reduce the amount of training data needed. In this paper we intr...
