We analyze the performance of a class of manifold-learning algorithms that find their output by minimizing a quadratic form under some normalization constraints. This class consis...

A ranking approach, ListRank-MF, is proposed for collaborative filtering that combines a list-wise learning-to-rank algorithm with matrix factorization (MF). A ranked list of item...
For two-class classification, it is common to classify by setting a threshold on class probability estimates, where the threshold is determined by ROC curve analysis. An analog fo...
Finding a point which minimizes the maximal distortion with respect to a dataset is an important estimation problem that has recently received growing attentions in machine learnin...
The informative vector machine (IVM) is a practical method for Gaussian process regression and classification. The IVM produces a sparse approximation to a Gaussian process by com...
