How does one repeatedly choose actions so as to be fairest to the multiple beneficiaries of those actions? We examine approaches to discovering sequences of actions for which the...
Dimensionality reduction plays an important role in many machine learning and pattern recognition tasks. In this paper, we present a novel dimensionality reduction algorithm calle...
Some real-world problems are partially decomposable, in that they can be decomposed into a set of coupled subproblems, that are each relatively easy to solve. However, when these ...
Based on studies and experiments on the loss term of SVMs, we argue that 1-norm measurement is better than 2-norm measurement for outlier resistance. Thus, we modify the previous 2...
