We propose a new local learning scheme that is based on the principle of decisiveness: the learned classifier is expected to exhibit large variability in the direction of the test ...
We consider the problem of learning a similarity function from a set of positive equivalence constraints, i.e. 'similar' point pairs. We define the similarity in informa...
Abstract. Sparse signal models learned from data are widely used in audio, image, and video restoration. They have recently been generalized to discriminative image understanding t...

In this paper, we present a novel approach to learning semantic localized patterns with binary projections in a supervised manner. The pursuit of these binary projections is refor...
Preference learning is a challenging problem that involves the prediction of complex structures, such as weak or partial order relations, rather than single values. In the recent ...
