We present a simple, easily implemented spectral learning algorithm which applies equally whether we have no supervisory information, pairwise link constraints, or labeled example...

We introduce a framework for filtering features that employs the Hilbert-Schmidt Independence Criterion (HSIC) as a measure of dependence between the features and the labels. The ...

In the context of large databases, data preparation takes a greater importance : instances and explanatory attributes have to be carefully selected. In supervised learning, instanc...
We present an unsupervised method for learning a hierarchy of sparse feature detectors that are invariant to small shifts and distortions. The resulting feature extractor consists...

Feature selection plays a fundamental role in many pattern
recognition problems. However, most efforts have been
focused on the supervised scenario, while unsupervised feature
s...
