Online Primal-Dual Algorithms for Maximizing Ad-Auctions Revenue
We study the online ad-auctions problem introduced by Mehta et. al. [15]. We design a (1 − 1/e)competitive (optimal) algorithm for the problem, which is based on a clean primal-...

Polyhedral outer approximations with application to natural language parsing
Recent approaches to learning structured predictors often require approximate inference for tractability; yet its effects on the learned model are unclear. Meanwhile, most learnin...

Structure-aware sampling on data streams
The massive data streams observed in network monitoring, data processing and scientific studies are typically too large to store. For many applications over such data, we must ob...

Training a Log-Linear Parser with Loss Functions via Softmax-Margin
Log-linear parsing models are often trained by optimizing likelihood, but we would prefer to optimise for a task-specific metric like Fmeasure. Softmax-margin is a convex objecti...

A Stagewise Least Square Loss Function for Classification
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...
