Feature selection is an important task in order to achieve better generalizability in high dimensional learning, and structure learning of Markov random fields (MRFs) can automat...
This paper studies the effect of discretizing the parametrization of a dictionary in the particular context of Matching Pursuit decompositions of signals. Our approach relies on th...
We consider a recently proposed optimization formulation of multi-task learning based on trace norm regularized least squares. While this problem may be formulated as a semidefini...

Crowding is a technique used in genetic algorithms to preserve diversity in the population and to prevent premature convergence to local optima. It consists of pairing each offsp...
It is well-known that two-level and multi-level preconditioned conjugate gradient (PCG) methods provide efficient techniques for solving large and sparse linear systems whose coeff...
