An Algorithmic Theory of Learning: Robust Concepts and Random Projection
We study the phenomenon of cognitive learning from an algorithmic standpoint. How does the brain effectively learn concepts from a small number of examples despite the fact that e...

Towards a Mathematical Theory of Primal Sketch and Sketchability
In this paper, we present a mathematical theory for Marr's primal sketch. We first conduct a theoretical study of the descriptive Markov random field model and the generative...
