We demonstrate a novel query interface that enables users to construct a rich search query without any prior knowledge of the underlying schema or data. The interface, which is in...
We consider the problem of learning to predict as well as the best in a group of experts making continuous predictions. We assume the learning algorithm has prior knowledge of the ...
In the standard formalization of supervised learning problems, a datum is represented as a vector of features without prior knowledge about relationships among features. However, ...
We describe a general approach to optimization which we term Squeaky Wheel" Optimization SWO. In SWO, a greedy algorithm is used to construct a solution which is then analyze...
A well-known result due to Vickery gives a mechanism for selling a number of goods to interested buyers in a way that achieves the maximum social welfare. In practice, a problem wi...
