On Learning to Coordinate: Random Bits Help, Insightful Normal Forms, and Competency Isomorphisms
A mere bounded number of random bits judiciously employed by a probabilistically correct algorithmic coordinator is shown to increase the power of learning to coordinate compared ...

What's It Going to Cost You?: Predicting Effort vs. Informativeness for Multi-Label Image Annotations
Active learning strategies can be useful when manual labeling effort is scarce, as they select the most informative examples to be annotated first. However, for visual category ...

Boosting and Differential Privacy
Boosting is a general method for improving the accuracy of learning algorithms. We use boosting to construct improved privacy-preserving synopses of an input database. These are da...
