Convolution kernels, such as sequence and tree kernels, are advantageous for both the concept and accuracy of many natural language processing (NLP) tasks. Experiments have, howev...
This paper proposes a novel approach for directly tuning the gaussian kernel matrix for one class learning. The popular gaussian kernel includes a free parameter, σ, that requires...

Kernel methods have been successfully applied to many machine learning problems. Nevertheless, since the performance of kernel methods depends heavily on the type of kernels being...

We consider a framework for semi-supervised learning using spectral decomposition-based unsupervised kernel design. We relate this approach to previously proposed semi-supervised l...
We extend tree-based methods to the prediction of structured outputs using a kernelization of the algorithm that allows one to grow trees as soon as a kernel can be defined on the...
