We define the class of games called simulation-based games, in which the payoffs are available as an output of an oracle (simulator), rather than specified analytically or using a...
Multiple Kernel Learning (MKL) can be formulated as a convex-concave minmax optimization problem, whose saddle point corresponds to the optimal solution to MKL. Most MKL methods e...
