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...
Support Vector Machines (SVMs) suffer from an O(n2 ) training cost, where n denotes the number of training instances. In this paper, we propose an algorithm to select boundary ins...
We study the problem of learning to accurately rank a set of objects by combining a given collection of ranking or preference functions. This problem of combining preferences aris...
