: Support Vector Machines (SVMs) have become an increasingly popular tool for machine learning tasks involving classi cation, regression or novelty detection. They exhibit good gen...
A computationally efficient approach to local learning with kernel methods is presented. The Fast Local Kernel Support Vector Machine (FaLK-SVM) trains a set of local SVMs on redu...
Sparse coding--that is, modelling data vectors as sparse linear combinations of basis elements--is widely used in machine learning, neuroscience, signal processing, and statistics...

We present a new method for transductive learning, which can be seen as a transductive version of the k nearest-neighbor classifier. Unlike for many other transductive learning me...
Automatically acquiring control-knowledge for planning, as it is the case for Machine Learning in general, strongly depends on the training examples. In the case of planning, examp...
