As increasing amounts of sensitive personal information is aggregated into data repositories, it has become important to develop mechanisms for processing the data without revealin...
Feature selection plays a fundamental role in many pattern
recognition problems. However, most efforts have been
focused on the supervised scenario, while unsupervised feature

We propose a new family of latent variable models called max-margin min-entropy (m3e) models, which define a distribution over the output and the hidden variables conditioned on ...

This paper presents an approach to build Sparse Large Margin Classifiers (SLMC) by adding one more constraint to the standard Support Vector Machine (SVM) training problem. The ad...
Abstract. We study discriminative joint density models, that is, generative models for the joint density p(c, x) learned by maximizing a discriminative cost function, the condition...
