Efficiently Learning Mixtures of Two Gaussians
Given data drawn from a mixture of multivariate Gaussians, a basic problem is to accurately estimate the mixture parameters. We provide a polynomial-time algorithm for this proble...

Sketching Information Divergences
When comparing discrete probability distributions, natural measures of similarity are not p distances but rather are informationdivergences such as Kullback-Leibler and Hellinger. ...
