We describe and evaluate the performance of a parallel search engine that is able to cope efficiently with concurrent read/write operations. Read operations come in the usual form ...
Sparse coding--that is, modelling data vectors as sparse linear combinations of basis elements--is widely used in machine learning, neuroscience, signal processing, and statistics...

NLP tasks are often domain specific, yet systems can learn behaviors across multiple domains. We develop a new multi-domain online learning framework based on parameter combinatio...
We review the application of statistical mechanics methods to the study of online learning of a drifting concept in the limit of large systems. The model where a feed-forward netwo...
We present a new family of subgradient methods that dynamically incorporate knowledge of the geometry of the data observed in earlier iterations to perform more informative gradie...
