A metric learning perspective of SVM: on the relation of LMNN and SVM
Support Vector Machines, SVMs, and the Large Margin Nearest Neighbor algorithm, LMNN, are two very popular learning algorithms with quite different learning biases. In this paper...

Deep Learning Made Easier by Linear Transformations in Perceptrons
We transform the outputs of each hidden neuron in a multi-layer perceptron network to have zero output and zero slope on average, and use separate shortcut connections to model th...

Exploiting Unrelated Tasks in Multi-Task Learning
We study the problem of learning a group of principal tasks using a group of auxiliary tasks, unrelated to the principal ones. In many applications, joint learning of unrelated ta...
