Learning random walks to rank nodes in graphs
Ranking nodes in graphs is of much recent interest. Edges, via the graph Laplacian, are used to encourage local smoothness of node scores in SVM-like formulations with generalizat...

Local learning projections
This paper presents a Local Learning Projection (LLP) approach for linear dimensionality reduction. We first point out that the well known Principal Component Analysis (PCA) essen...

Multi-task reinforcement learning: a hierarchical Bayesian approach
We consider the problem of multi-task reinforcement learning, where the agent needs to solve a sequence of Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) chosen randomly from a fixed but unknow...

Hybrid huberized support vector machines for microarray classification
The large number of genes and the relatively small number of samples are typical characteristics for microarray data. These characteristics pose challenges for both sample classif...

A kernel path algorithm for support vector machines
The choice of the kernel function which determines the mapping between the input space and the feature space is of crucial importance to kernel methods. The past few years have se...

Transductive support vector machines for structured variables
We study the problem of learning kernel machines transductively for structured output variables. Transductive learning can be reduced to combinatorial optimization problems over a...

On the value of pairwise constraints in classification and consistency
In this paper we consider the problem of classification in the presence of pairwise constraints, which consist of pairs of examples as well as a binary variable indicating whether...

Optimal dimensionality of metric space for classification
In many real-world applications, Euclidean distance in the original space is not good due to the curse of dimensionality. In this paper, we propose a new method, called Discrimina...

Conditional random fields for multi-agent reinforcement learning
Conditional random fields (CRFs) are graphical models for modeling the probability of labels given the observations. They have traditionally been trained with using a set of obser...
