Polyhedral outer approximations with application to natural language parsing
Recent approaches to learning structured predictors often require approximate inference for tractability; yet its effects on the learned model are unclear. Meanwhile, most learnin...

Softening Splits in Decision Trees Using Simulated Annealing
Predictions computed by a classification tree are usually constant on axis-parallel hyperrectangles corresponding to the leaves and have strict jumps on their boundaries. The densi...

Approximate Min-Max Theorems of Steiner Rooted-Orientations of Hypergraphs
Given an undirected hypergraph and a subset of vertices S ⊆ V with a specified root vertex r ∈ S, the STEINER ROOTED-ORIENTATION problem is to find an orientation of all the...
