Abstract-- This paper introduces Evolutionary Pursuit (EP) as a novel and adaptive representation method for image encoding and classification. In analogy to projection pursuit met...
A wide variety of machine learning problems can be described as minimizing a regularized risk functional, with different algorithms using different notions of risk and differen...
