This paper is concerned with the question of how to online combine an ensemble of active learners so as to expedite the learning progress during a pool-based active learning sessi...
We address the problem of learning distance metrics using side-information in the form of groups of "similar" points. We propose to use the RCA algorithm, which is a sim...
We propose a general framework for support vector machines (SVM) based on the principle of multi-objective optimization. The learning of SVMs is formulated as a multiobjective pro...
This paper presents a novel discriminative learning technique for label sequences based on a combination of the two most successful learning algorithms, Support Vector Machines an...

In kernel methods, an interesting recent development seeks to learn a good kernel from empirical data automatically. In this paper, by regarding the transductive learning of the k...
Surrogate maximization (or minimization) (SM) algorithms are a family of algorithms that can be regarded as a generalization of expectation-maximization (EM) algorithms. There are...
Classifier learning methods commonly assume that the training data consist of randomly drawn examples from the same distribution as the test examples about which the learned model...
