Recent advances in Multiple Kernel Learning (MKL) have positioned it as an attractive tool for tackling many supervised learning tasks. The development of efficient gradient desce...
The detection of faces in images is fundamentally a rare event detection problem. Cascade classifiers provide an efficient computational solution, by leveraging the asymmetry in t...
Automated detection of the first document reporting each new event in temporally-sequenced streams of documents is an open challenge. In this paper we propose a new approach which...

Generic libraries, such as the C++ Standard Template Library (STL), provide flexible, high-performance algorithms and data types, along with functional specifications and performa...
Abstract. We revisit Gaussian Adaptation (GaA), a black-box optimizer for discrete and continuous problems that has been developed in the late 1960’s. This largely neglected sear...
