Latent Variable Models (LVM), like the Shared-GPLVM
and the Spectral Latent Variable Model, help mitigate over-
fitting when learning discriminative methods from small or
modera...
Spectral methods for embedding graphs and immersing data manifolds in low-dimensional speaces are notoriously unstable due to insufficient and/or numberically ill-conditioned con...
We equate nonlinear dimensionality reduction (NLDR) to graph embedding with side information about the vertices, and derive a solution to either problem in the form of a kernel-ba...
Existing feature extraction methods explore either global statistical or local geometric information underlying the data. In this paper, we propose a general framework to learn fea...

The rise of convex programming has changed the face of many research fields in recent years, machine learning being one of the ones that benefitted the most. A very recent develop...
