We discuss the problem of clustering elements according to the sources that have generated them. For elements that are characterized by independent binary attributes, a closedform...
In this paper we consider the problem of classification in the presence of pairwise constraints, which consist of pairs of examples as well as a binary variable indicating whether...
We present an efficient method for maximizing energy functions with first and second order potentials, suitable for MAP labeling estimation problems that arise in undirected graph...
Policy evaluation is a critical step in the approximate solution of large Markov decision processes (MDPs), typically requiring O(|S|3 ) to directly solve the Bellman system of |S...
We discuss the problem of fitting an implicit shape model to a set of points sampled from a co-dimension one manifold of arbitrary topology. The method solves a non-convex optimis...
