Learning the kernel via convex optimization
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...

A Quasi-Newton Approach to Nonsmooth Convex Optimization Problems in Machine Learning
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...

Evolutionary Training Set Selection to Optimize C4.5 in Imbalanced Problems
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 ...
