The maximum flow algorithm for minimizing energy functions of binary variables has become a standard tool in computer vision. In many cases, unary costs of the energy depend linea...
In the k-nearest neighbor (KNN) classifier, nearest neighbors involve only labeled data. That makes it inappropriate for the data set that includes very few labeled data. In this ...
Past empirical work has shown that learning multiple related tasks from data simultaneously can be advantageous in terms of predictive performance relative to learning these tasks...
We study an extension of the "standard" learning models to settings where observing the value of an attribute has an associated cost (which might be different for differ...
There has been a recent, growing interest in classification and link prediction in structured domains. Methods such as conditional random fields and relational Markov networks sup...
