The problem of multimodal data mining in a multimedia database can be addressed as a structured prediction problem where we learn the mapping from an input to the structured and i...

A serious drawback of kernel methods, and Support Vector Machines (SVM) in particular, is the difficulty in choosing a suitable kernel function for a given dataset. One of the appr...

We describe an alternative to standard nonnegative matrix factorisation (NMF) for nonnegative dictionary learning. NMF with the Kullback-Leibler divergence can be seen as maximisa...
Variable selection is an important and practical problem that arises in analysis of many high-dimensional datasets. Convex optimization procedures that arise from relaxing the NP-...
