In many real-world applications, Euclidean distance in the original space is not good due to the curse of dimensionality. In this paper, we propose a new method, called Discrimina...
We present metric?? , a provably near-optimal algorithm for reinforcement learning in Markov decision processes in which there is a natural metric on the state space that allows t...
A general framework is proposed for gradient boosting in supervised learning problems where the loss function is defined using a kernel over the output space. It extends boosting ...
We propose a new voxel similarity measure which utilises local image structure as well intensity information. Gaussian scale space derivatives are used to provide the structural in...

The application of kernel-based learning algorithms has, so far, largely been confined to realvalued data and a few special data types, such as strings. In this paper we propose a...
