Partial example acquisition in cost-sensitive learning
It is often expensive to acquire data in real-world data mining applications. Most previous data mining and machine learning research, however, assumes that a fixed set of trainin...

Learning Complex and Sparse Events in Long Sequences
The Hierarchical Hidden Markov Model (HHMM) is a well formalized tool suitable to model complex patterns in long temporal or spatial sequences. Even if effective algorithms are ava...

A Quasi-Newton Approach to Nonsmooth Convex Optimization Problems in Machine Learning
We extend the well-known BFGS quasi-Newton method and its memory-limited variant LBFGS to the optimization of nonsmooth convex objectives. This is done in a rigorous fashion by ge...
