We study the label complexity of pool-based active learning in the agnostic PAC model. Specifically, we derive general bounds on the number of label requests made by the A2 algori...
To solve a problem on a given CNF formula F a splitting algorithm recursively calls for F[v] and F[¬v] for a variable v. Obviously, after the first call an algorithm obtains some...
We present an improved bound on the difference between training and test errors for voting classifiers. This improved averaging bound provides a theoretical justification for popu...
This work characterizes the generalization ability of algorithms whose predictions are linear in the input vector. To this end, we provide sharp bounds for Rademacher and Gaussian...
This paper concerns learning and prediction with probabilistic models where the domain sizes of latent variables have no a priori upper-bound. Current approaches represent prior d...
