We give a provably correct algorithm to reconstruct a kdimensional manifold embedded in d-dimensional Euclidean space. Input to our algorithm is a point sample coming from an unkn...
This paper describes our participation in the 2008 TREC Blog track. Our system consists of 3 components: data preprocessing, topic retrieval, and opinion finding. In the topic ret...
In this paper we present a method for reformulating the Recommender Systems problem in an Information Retrieval one. In our tests we have a dataset of users who give ratings for s...
Online learning and kernel learning are two active research topics in machine learning. Although each of them has been studied extensively, there is a limited effort in addressing ...
In this paper we describe a stochastic local search (SLS) procedure for finding satisfying models of satisfiable propositional formulae. This new algorithm, gNovelty+ , draws on th...
