It is well known that prior knowledge or bias can speed up learning, at least in theory. It has proved di cult to make constructive use of prior knowledge, so that approximately c...
Given A := {a1, . . . , am} ⊂ Rd whose affine hull is Rd, we study the problems of computing an approximate rounding of the convex hull of A and an approximation to the minimum ...
Quadratic Programming (QP) is the well-studied problem of maximizing over {−1, 1} values the quadratic form i=j aijxixj. QP captures many known combinatorial optimization proble...
In recent years, the sketch-based technique has been presented as an effective method for counting stream items on processors with limited storage and processing capabilities, such...

Conventional subspace learning or recent feature extraction methods consider globality as the key criterion to design discriminative algorithms for image classification. We demonst...
