Minimax-Optimal Rates For Sparse Additive Models Over Kernel Classes Via Convex Programming
Sparse additive models are families of d-variate functions with the additive decomposition f∗ = ∑j∈S f∗ j , where S is an unknown subset of cardinality s d. In this paper,...

Additive Update Predictors in Active Appearance Models
The Active Appearance Model (AAM) provides an efficient method for localizing objects that vary in both shape and texture, and uses a linear regressor to predict updates to model ...

Regularization Methods for Additive Models
This paper tackles the problem of model complexity in the context of additive models. Several methods have been proposed to estimate smoothing parameters, as well as to perform var...

Discovering additive structure in black box functions
Many automated learning procedures lack interpretability, operating effectively as a black box: providing a prediction tool but no explanation of the underlying dynamics that driv...
