We address the problem of learning distance metrics using side-information in the form of groups of "similar" points. We propose to use the RCA algorithm, which is a sim...
We present a novel ``dynamic learning'' approach for an intelligent image database system to automatically improve object segmentation and labeling without user interven...
The field of transfer learning aims to speed up learning across multiple related tasks by transferring knowledge between source and target tasks. Past work has shown that when th...
A large number of learning algorithms, for example, spectral clustering, kernel Principal Components Analysis and many manifold methods are based on estimating eigenvalues and eig...
This paper concerns learning binary-valued functions defined on IR, and investigates how a particular type of ‘regularity’ of hypotheses can be used to obtain better generali...
