We extend the well-known BFGS quasi-Newton method and its memory-limited variant LBFGS to the optimization of nonsmooth convex objectives. This is done in a rigorous fashion by ge...
Image patches are fundamental elements for object modeling and recognition. However, there has not been a panoramic study of the structures of the whole ensemble of natural image ...
We address the problem of learning a kernel for a given supervised learning task. Our approach consists in searching within the convex hull of a prescribed set of basic kernels fo...

We present a new algorithm for minimizing a convex loss-function subject to regularization. Our framework applies to numerous problems in machine learning and statistics; notably,...
A major limitation of Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI) is their long calibration time, as much data from the user must be collected in order to tune the BCI for this target user. I...
