Ensemble Learning and Linear Response Theory for ICA
We propose a general framework for performing independent component analysis (ICA) which relies on ensemble learning and linear response theory known from statistical physics. We ...

How experimental algorithmics can benefit from Mayo's extensions to Neyman-Pearson theory of testing
Although theoretical results for several algorithms in many application domains were presented during the last decades, not all algorithms can be analyzed fully theoretically. Exp...

Noise-tolerant learning, the parity problem, and the statistical query model
We describe a slightly subexponential time algorithm for learning parity functions in the presence of random classification noise, a problem closely related to several cryptograph...

Beyond second-order statistics for learning: A pairwise interaction model for entropy estimation
Second order statistics have formed the basis of learning and adaptation due to its appeal and analytical simplicity. On the other hand, in many realistic engineering problems requ...

Statistical Analysis of Semi-Supervised Regression
Semi-supervised methods use unlabeled data in addition to labeled data to construct predictors. While existing semi-supervised methods have shown some promising empirical performa...
