In this paper we present a boosting approach to multiple instance learning. As weak hypotheses we use balls (with respect to various metrics) centered at instances of positive bags...
We present PLIANT, a learning system that supports adaptive assistance in an open calendaring system. PLIANT learns user preferences from the feedback that naturally occurs during...

We develop a novel online learning algorithm for the group lasso in order to efficiently find the important explanatory factors in a grouped manner. Different from traditional bat...

When the transition probabilities and rewards of a Markov Decision Process are specified exactly, the problem can be solved without any interaction with the environment. When no s...
We present a new approach to estimating mixture models based on a new inference principle we have proposed: the latent maximum entropy principle (LME). LME is different both from ...
