This paper presents a stagewise least square (SLS) loss function for classification. It uses a least square form within each stage to approximate a bounded monotonic nonconvex los...
Abstract--Local learning methods, such as local linear regression and nearest neighbor classifiers, base estimates on nearby training samples, neighbors. Usually, the number of nei...
Approximate Bayesian Gaussian process (GP) classification techniques are powerful nonparametric learning methods, similar in appearance and performance to support vector machines....
Traditional classification methods assume that the training and the test data arise from the same underlying distribution. However, in several adversarial settings, the test set is...
Pattern variation is a major factor that affects the performance of recognition systems. In this paper, a novel manifold tangent modeling method called Discriminant Additive Tange...
