We study an interesting and challenging problem, online streaming feature selection, in which the size of the feature set is unknown, and not all features are available for learni...
Pseudo-likelihood and contrastive divergence are two well-known examples of contrastive methods. These algorithms trade off the probability of the correct label with the probabili...
A single signal processing algorithm can be represented by many mathematically equivalent formulas. However, when these formulas are implemented in code and run on real machines, ...
Most approaches to classifying media content assume a fixed, closed vocabulary of labels. In contrast, we advocate machine learning approaches which take advantage of the millions...
In several information retrieval (IR) systems there is a possibility for user feedback. Many machine learning methods have been proposed that learn from the feedback information in...
