Distributed databases and other networked information systems use copies or mirrors to reduce latency and to increase availability. Copies need to be refreshed. In a loosely coupl...
We develop a cyclical blockwise coordinate descent algorithm for the multi-task Lasso that efficiently solves problems with thousands of features and tasks. The main result shows ...
Many time-series experiments seek to estimate some signal as a continuous function of time. In this paper, we address the sampling problem for such experiments: determining which ...

We consider the problem of ranking refinement, i.e., to improve the accuracy of an existing ranking function with a small set of labeled instances. We are, particularly, intereste...
This paper proposes a novel and robust approach to the groupwise point-sets registration problem in the presence of large amounts of noise and outliers. Each of the point sets is r...
