We present a unified duality view of several recently emerged spectral methods for nonlinear dimensionality reduction, including Isomap, locally linear embedding, Laplacian eigenm...
We consider distributed estimation of a deterministic vector parameter from noisy sensor observations in a wireless sensor network (WSN). The observation noise is assumed uncorrela...
The ratio of two probability density functions is becoming a quantity of interest these days in the machine learning and data mining communities since it can be used for various d...
We investigate how to learn a kernel matrix for high dimensional data that lies on or near a low dimensional manifold. Noting that the kernel matrix implicitly maps the data into ...
With the increased abilities for automated data collection made possible by modern technology, the typical sizes of data collections have continued to grow in recent years. In suc...
