Abstract--We propose a new Consistent Weighted Sampling method, where the probability of drawing identical samples for a pair of inputs is equal to their Jaccard similarity. Our me...
The current study reports specific cases in which a positive transfer of perceptual ability from the music domain to the language domain occurs. We tested whether musical training...

We propose Shotgun, a parallel coordinate descent algorithm for minimizing L1regularized losses. Though coordinate descent seems inherently sequential, we prove convergence bounds...

Graphical models are well established in providing compact conditional probability descriptions of complex multivariable interactions. In the Gaussian case, graphical models are d...
The growing computational and storage needs of several scientific applications mandate the deployment of extreme-scale parallel machines, such as IBM’s BlueGene/L which can acc...
