Abstract. We consider the problem of estimating an unknown probability distribution from samples using the principle of maximum entropy (maxent). To alleviate overfitting with a v...
Abstract--Feature selection is an important challenge in machine learning. Unfortunately, most methods for automating feature selection are designed for supervised learning tasks a...
L1 regularization is effective for feature selection, but the resulting optimization is challenging due to the non-differentiability of the 1-norm. In this paper we compare state...
We present a low resolution face recognition technique based on a Convolutional Neural Network approach. The network is trained to reconstruct a reference per subject image. In cl...
Machine Learning based on the Regularized Least Square (RLS) model requires one to solve a system of linear equations. Direct-solution methods exhibit predictable complexity and s...
