- Oblivious transfer OT is an important primitive in cryptography. In chosen one-out-of-two OT, Alice offers two bits, one of which Bob can choose to read, not learning any informa...
Decision Trees are well known for their training efficiency and their interpretable knowledge representation. They apply a greedy search and a divide-and-conquer approach to learn...

Abstract. Mutual Information (MI) is a long studied measure of coding efficiency, and many attempts to apply it to population coding have been made. However, this is a computationa...
Variational methods have proved popular and effective for inference and learning in intractable graphical models. An attractive feature of the approaches based on the Kullback-Lei...
Various problems in machine learning, databases, and statistics involve pairwise distances among a set of objects. It is often desirable for these distances to satisfy the propert...
