By embedding sensors in mobile devices, it is possible to exploit the ubiquitous presence of these devices to construct applications for large-scale sensing and monitoring of envi...
Topological predicates, as derived from the 9-intersection model, have been widely recognized in GIS, spatial database systems, and many other geo-related disciplines. They are ba...

Despite popular belief, boosting algorithms and related coordinate descent methods are prone to overfitting. We derive modifications to AdaBoost and related gradient-based coordin...
In multi-task learning our goal is to design regression or classification models for each of the tasks and appropriately share information between tasks. A Dirichlet process (DP) ...
In supervised learning, we commonly assume that training and test data are sampled from the same distribution. However, this assumption can be violated in practice and then standa...
