We develop a supervised dimensionality reduction method, called Lorentzian Discriminant Projection (LDP), for feature extraction and classification. Our method represents the str...
A sparse representation of Support Vector Machines (SVMs) with respect to input features is desirable for many applications. In this paper, by introducing a 0-1 control variable t...
Learning general functional dependencies is one of the main goals in machine learning. Recent progress in kernel-based methods has focused on designing flexible and powerful input...

In many applications involving multi-media data, the definition of similarity between items is integral to several key tasks, including nearest-neighbor retrieval, classification,...
Hierarchical penalization is a generic framework for incorporating prior information in the fitting of statistical models, when the explicative variables are organized in a hiera...
