A Quasi-Newton Approach to Nonsmooth Convex Optimization Problems in Machine Learning
We extend the well-known BFGS quasi-Newton method and its memory-limited variant LBFGS to the optimization of nonsmooth convex objectives. This is done in a rigorous fashion by ge...

Active Preference Learning with Discrete Choice Data
We propose an active learning algorithm that learns a continuous valuation model from discrete preferences. The algorithm automatically decides what items are best presented to an...
