Research in education and cognitive development suggests that explaining plays a key role in learning and generalization: When learners provide explanations--even to themselves--t...
This paper is concerned with the generalization ability of learning to rank algorithms for information retrieval (IR). We point out that the key for addressing the learning proble...

: In this paper, we study the parameter estimation problem in a general heteroscedastic linear system, by putting the problem in the framework of the bilinear approach to low-rank ...
Clustering is the problem of identifying the distribution of patterns and intrinsic correlations in large data sets by partitioning the data points into similarity classes. This p...
We offer a solution to the type inference problem for an extension of Hindley and Milner's type system with generalized algebraic data types. Our approach is in two strata. T...
