A central problem in learning is selection of an appropriate model. This is typically done by estimating the unknown generalization errors of a set of models to be selected from a...
A convenient way of analysing Riemannian manifolds is to embed them in Euclidean spaces, with the embedding typically obtained by flattening the manifold via tangent spaces. This...
Abstract. We propose an independence criterion based on the eigenspectrum of covariance operators in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHSs), consisting of an empirical estimate ...

Similarity measures in many real applications generate indefinite similarity matrices. In this paper, we consider the problem of classification based on such indefinite similariti...
We propose a novel variant of the conjugate gradient algorithm, Kernel Conjugate Gradient (KCG), designed to speed up learning for kernel machines with differentiable loss functio...
