Domain adaptation is a fundamental learning problem where one wishes to use labeled data from one or several source domains to learn a hypothesis performing well on a different, y...
Deep Belief Networks (DBN's) are generative models that contain many layers of hidden variables. Efficient greedy algorithms for learning and approximate inference have allow...
We introduce a new model for learning in the presence of noise, which we call the Nasty Noise model. This model generalizes previously considered models of learning with noise. Th...
Regression methods aim at inducing models of numeric data. While most state-of-the-art machine learning methods for regression focus on inducing piecewise regression models (regres...
We present a machine learning approach for the task of ranking previously answered questions in a question repository with respect to their relevance to a new, unanswered referenc...
