Active and semi-supervised learning are important techniques when labeled data are scarce. Recently a method was suggested for combining active learning with a semi-supervised lea...
Fast fusion of multiple registered out-of-focus images is of great interest in medical imaging; for example, the thoracic cavity is always too bumpy to be focused on all parts at ...
The paper introduces some generalizations of Vapnik’s method of structural risk minimisation (SRM). As well as making explicit some of the details on SRM, it provides a result t...

The consistency of classification algorithm plays a central role in statistical learning theory. A consistent algorithm guarantees us that taking more samples essentially suffices...
We study some stability properties of algorithms which minimize (or almost-minimize) empirical error over Donsker classes of functions. We show that, as the number n of samples gr...
