Random projections as regularizers: learning a linear discriminant from fewer observations than dimensions
We prove theoretical guarantees for an averaging-ensemble of randomly projected Fisher Linear Discriminant classifiers, focusing on the case when there are fewer training observat...

Soft-max boosting
The standard multi-class classification risk, based on the binary loss, is rarely directly minimized. This is due to (i) the lack of convexity and (ii) the lack of smoothness (and...

A Bayesian approach for comparing cross-validated algorithms on multiple data sets
We present a Bayesian approach for making statistical inference about the accuracy (or any other score) of two competing algorithms which have been assessed via cross-validation on...
