A Stagewise Least Square Loss Function for Classification
This paper presents a stagewise least square (SLS) loss function for classification. It uses a least square form within each stage to approximate a bounded monotonic nonconvex los...

A DC-programming algorithm for kernel selection
We address the problem of learning a kernel for a given supervised learning task. Our approach consists in searching within the convex hull of a prescribed set of basic kernels fo...

Convergent Message-Passing Algorithms for Inference over General Graphs with Convex Free Energies
Inference problems in graphical models can be represented as a constrained optimization of a free energy function. It is known that when the Bethe free energy is used, the fixedpo...

Learning Convex Combinations of Continuously Parameterized Basic Kernels
We study the problem of learning a kernel which minimizes a regularization error functional such as that used in regularization networks or support vector machines. We consider thi...

Convex Multi-class Image Labeling by Simplex-Constrained Total Variation
Multi-class labeling is one of the core problems in image analysis. We show how this combinatorial problem can be approximately solved using tools from convex optimization. We sugg...
