In this paper, we consider a smoothing kernelbased classification rule and propose an algorithm for optimizing the performance of the rule by learning the bandwidth of the smoothi...

We introduce a method that enables scalable image search for learned metrics. Given pairwise similarity and dissimilarity constraints between some images, we learn a Mahalanobis d...
This paper presents an approach to establish and support learning communities. Based on task context information (which is extracted from multiple sources) and relying on the docum...
For two-class datasets, we provide a method for estimating the generalization error of a bag using out-of-bag estimates. In bagging, each predictor (single hypothesis) is learned ...
A big part of life long learning is the move from residential lectures to distance education. Distance education falls under the multi-modal policy of the teaching institution and...
