Learning and Smoothed Analysis
We give a new model of learning motivated by smoothed analysis (Spielman and Teng, 2001). In this model, we analyze two new algorithms, for PAC-learning DNFs and agnostically learn...

When Does Greedy Learning of Relevant Features Succeed? --- A Fourier-based Characterization ---
Detecting the relevant attributes of an unknown target concept is an important and well studied problem in algorithmic learning. Simple greedy strategies have been proposed that s...

Generating Partial and Multiple Transversals of a Hypergraph
We consider two natural generalizations of the notion of transversal to a finite hypergraph, arising in data-mining and machine learning, the so called multiple and partial transve...

Submodular Approximation: Sampling-based Algorithms and Lower Bounds
We introduce several generalizations of classical computer science problems obtained by replacing simpler objective functions with general submodular functions. The new problems i...

Submodular dictionary learning for sparse coding
A greedy-based approach to learn a compact and discriminative dictionary for sparse representation is presented. We propose an objective function consisting of two components: ent...
