Training Hard-Margin Support Vector Machines Using Greedy Stagewise Algorithm
Hard-margin support vector machines (HM-SVMs) suffer from getting overfitting in the presence of noise. Soft-margin SVMs deal with this problem by introducing a regularization term...

Sublinear algorithms for testing monotone and unimodal distributions
The complexity of testing properties of monotone and unimodal distributions, when given access only to samples of the distribution, is investigated. Two kinds of sublineartime alg...

Coresets for polytope distance
Following recent work of Clarkson, we translate the coreset framework to the problems of finding the point closest to the origin inside a polytope, finding the shortest distance...

First steps to the runtime complexity analysis of ant colony optimization
: The paper presents results on the runtime complexity of two ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithms: Ant System, the oldest ACO variant, and GBAS, the first ACO variant for whic...
