Completely Lazy Learning
—Local classifiers are sometimes called lazy learners because they do not train a classifier until presented with a test sample. However, such methods are generally not complet...

Spectral Regularization Algorithms for Learning Large Incomplete Matrices
We use convex relaxation techniques to provide a sequence of regularized low-rank solutions for large-scale matrix completion problems. Using the nuclear norm as a regularizer, we...

Age-Layered Expectation Maximization for Parameter Learning in Bayesian Networks
The expectation maximization (EM) algorithm is a popular algorithm for parameter estimation in models with hidden variables. However, the algorithm has several non-trivial limitat...

Regret Bounds for Prediction Problems
We present a unified framework for reasoning about worst-case regret bounds for learning algorithms. This framework is based on the theory of duality of convex functions. It brin...

An optimization problem on the sphere
We prove existence and uniqueness of the minimizer for the average geodesic distance to the points of a geodesically convex set on the sphere. This implies a corresponding existen...
