The problem of record linkage focuses on determining whether two object descriptions refer to the same underlying entity. Addressing this problem effectively has many practical ap...
We study the problem of an apprentice learning to behave in an environment with an unknown reward function by observing the behavior of an expert. We follow on the work of Abbeel ...
We apply independent component analysis (ICA) for extracting an optimal basis to the problem of finding efficient features for a speaker. The basis functions learned by the algori...
Abstract. We study discriminative joint density models, that is, generative models for the joint density p(c, x) learned by maximizing a discriminative cost function, the condition...
The advantage of a kernel method often depends critically on a proper choice of the kernel function. A promising approach is to learn the kernel from data automatically. In this p...
