Distance functions are an important component in many learning applications. However, the correct function is context dependent, therefore it is advantageous to learn a distance f...
In this paper, we suggest to use a steepest descent algorithm for learning a parametric dictionary in which the structure or atom functions are known in advance. The structure of ...

Abstract. We present first experiments using Support Vector Regression as function approximator for an on-line, sarsa-like reinforcement learner. To overcome the batch nature of S...
Abstract In this paper we present a new method for Joint Feature Selection and Classifier Learning (JFSCL) using a sparse Bayesian approach. These tasks are performed by optimizing...
We study a sparse coding learning algorithm that allows for a simultaneous learning of the data sparseness and the basis functions. The algorithm is derived based on a generative m...
