The performance of a kernel-based learning algorithm depends very much on the choice of the kernel. Recently, much attention has been paid to the problem of learning the kernel it...

We extend the well-known BFGS quasi-Newton method and its memory-limited variant LBFGS to the optimization of nonsmooth convex objectives. This is done in a rigorous fashion by ge...
Classification in imbalanced domains is a recent challenge in machine learning. We refer to imbalanced classification when data presents many examples from one class and few from ...
Prediction from expert advice is a fundamental problem in machine learning. A major pillar of the field is the existence of learning algorithms whose average loss approaches that ...
In transfer learning the aim is to solve new learning tasks using fewer examples by using information gained from solving related tasks. Existing transfer learning methods have be...
