Ranking is a key problem in many information retrieval (IR) applications, such as document retrieval and collaborative filtering. In this paper, we address the issue of learning ...
Ranking large scale image and video collections usually expects higher accuracy on top ranked data, while tolerates lower accuracy on bottom ranked ones. In view of this, we propo...
For many supervised learning tasks it is very costly to produce training data with class labels. Active learning acquires data incrementally, at each stage using the model learned...
We study metric learning as a problem of information retrieval. We present a general metric learning algorithm, based on the structural SVM framework, to learn a metric such that ...
We introduce a Bayesian model, BayesANIL, that is capable of estimating uncertainties associated with the labeling process. Given a labeled or partially labeled training corpus of...
