Bagging Regularizes
(2002-03-01)Intuitively, we expect that averaging --- or bagging --- different regressors with low correlation should smooth their behavior and be somewhat similar to regularization. In this note we make this intuition precise. ...

Exact Solution of the Nonlinear Dynamics of Recurrent Neural Mechanisms for Direction Selectivity
(2002-08-01)Different theoretical models have tried to investigate the feasibility of recurrent neural mechanisms for achieving direction selectivity in the visual cortex. The mathematical analysis of such models has been restricted ...

The Grasping Problem: Toward Task-Level Programming for an Articulated Hand
(1990-05-01)This report presents a system for generating a stable, feasible, and reachable grasp of a polyhedral object. A set of contact points on the object is found that can result in a stable grasp; a feasible grasp is found ...

Some Properties of Empirical Risk Minimization over Donsker Classes
(2005-05-17)We study properties of algorithms which minimize (or almost minimize) empirical error over a Donsker class of functions. We show that the L2-diameter of the set of almost-minimizers is converging to zero in probability. ...
