Abstract. We consider the problem of estimating an unknown probability distribution from samples using the principle of maximum entropy (maxent). To alleviate overfitting with a v...
Abstract. The Gram matrix plays a central role in many kernel methods. Knowledge about the distribution of eigenvalues of the Gram matrix is useful for developing appropriate model...
Abstract. We conducted an eye-tracking study of mechanical problem solving from cross-sectional diagrams of devices. Response time, accuracy and eye movement data were collected an...
