The paper studies machine learning problems where each example is described using a set of Boolean features and where hypotheses are represented by linear threshold elements. One ...
This paper is about the use of metric data structures in high-dimensionalor non-Euclidean space to permit cached sufficientstatisticsaccelerationsof learning algorithms. It has re...
We address the problem of learning distance metrics using side-information in the form of groups of "similar" points. We propose to use the RCA algorithm, which is a sim...

Kernel descriptors provide a unified way to generate rich visual feature sets by turning pixel attributes into patch-level features, and yield impressive results on many object rec...
