We present a general framework for constructing two-message oblivious transfer protocols using a modification of Cramer and Shoup’s notion of smooth projective hashing (2002). ...
Abstract. Sigmoidal or radial transfer functions do not guarantee the best generalization nor fast learning of neural networks. Families of parameterized transfer functions provide...
Choosing good features to represent objects can be crucial to the success of supervised machine learning algorithms. Good high-level features are those that concentrate informatio...
Multi-view learning algorithms typically assume a complete bipartite mapping between the different views in order to exchange information during the learning process. However, ma...
To learn a new visual category from few examples, prior knowledge from unlabeled data as well as previous related categories may be useful. We develop a new method for transfer le...
