The use of Mercer kernel methods in statistical learning theory provides for strong learning capabilities, as seen in kernel principal component analysis and support vector machin...
Abstract. In this paper, we consider the possibility of obtaining a kernel machine that is sparse in feature space and smooth in output space. Smooth in output space implies that t...
Support Vector Machines (SVMs) for classification tasks produce sparse models by maximizing the margin. Two limitations of this technique are considered in this work: firstly, th...
We present new, general-purpose kernels for protein structure analysis, and describe how to apply them to structural motif discovery and function classification. Experiments show ...
Kernel functions have become an extremely popular tool in machine learning, with an attractive theory as well. This theory views a kernel as implicitly mapping data points into a ...
