Generalized Bradley-Terry Models and Multi-Class Probability Estimates
The Bradley-Terry model for obtaining individual skill from paired comparisons has been popular in many areas. In machine learning, this model is related to multi-class probabilit...

Stability Properties of Empirical Risk Minimization over Donsker Classes
We study some stability properties of algorithms which minimize (or almost-minimize) empirical error over Donsker classes of functions. We show that, as the number n of samples gr...

Accurate Error Bounds for the Eigenvalues of the Kernel Matrix
The eigenvalues of the kernel matrix play an important role in a number of kernel methods, in particular, in kernel principal component analysis. It is well known that the eigenva...

Point-Based Value Iteration for Continuous POMDPs
We propose a novel approach to optimize Partially Observable Markov Decisions Processes (POMDPs) defined on continuous spaces. To date, most algorithms for model-based POMDPs are ...

Optimizing Call Center Staffing Using Simulation and Analytic Center Cutting-Plane Methods
We consider the problem of minimizing staffing costs in an inbound call center, while maintaining an acceptable level of service in multiple time periods. The problem is complicat...
