The structure of a Markov network is typically learned using top-down search. At each step, the search specializes a feature by conjoining it to the variable or feature that most ...
Dimensionality reduction via Random Projections has attracted considerable attention in recent years. The approach has interesting theoretical underpinnings and offers computation...
We study the standard retrieval task of ranking a fixed set of items given a previously unseen query and pose it as the half transductive ranking problem. The task is transductive...
