—Stochastic relaxation aims at finding the minimum of a fitness function by identifying a proper sequence of distributions, in a given model, that minimize the expected value o...
The supervised learning paradigm assumes in general that both training and test data are sampled from the same distribution. When this assumption is violated, we are in the setting...
In many dynamic matching applications—especially high-stakes ones—the competitive ratios of prior-free online algorithms are unacceptably poor. The algorithm should take distr...

In this paper, we propose a novel approach for learning generic visual vocabulary. We use diffusion maps to au-tomatically learn a semantic visual vocabulary from ab-undant quantiz...
