This paper conjectures a computational account of how children might learn the meanings of words in their native language. First, a simplified version of the lexical acquisition t...
The promise of unsupervised learning methods lies in their potential to use vast amounts of unlabeled data to learn complex, highly nonlinear models with millions of free paramete...
Kernel methods yield state-of-the-art performance in certain applications such as image classification and object detection. However, large scale problems require machine learning...

The success of popular algorithms such as k-means clustering or nearest neighbor searches depend on the assumption that the underlying distance functions reflect domain-specific n...
This paper extends previous work on the Skewing algorithm, a promising approach that allows greedy decision tree induction algorithms to handle problematic functions such as parit...
