Kernels for Vector-Valued Functions: a Review
(2011-06-30)
Kernel methods are among the most popular techniques in machine learning. From a frequentist/discriminative perspective they play a central role in regularization theory as they provide a natural choice for the hypotheses ...
A Scalable Information Theoretic Approach to Distributed Robot Coordination
(2011-09-25)
This paper presents a scalable information theoretic approach to infer the state of an environment by distributively controlling robots equipped with sensors. The robots iteratively estimate the environment state using a ...
Source code and data for MWE'2011 papers
(2011-05-09)
Contains the source code and data necessary to run all computations described in the following two papers: Finlayson, Mark A. and Kulkarni, Nidhi (2011) "Detecting Multi-Word Expressions improves Word Sense Disambiguation", ...
Regularization Predicts While Discovering Taxonomy
(2011-06-03)
In this work we discuss a regularization framework to solve multi-category when the classes are described by an underlying class taxonomy. In particular we discuss how to learn the class taxonomy while learning a multi-category ...
Extensibility in end-user network applications : a feature or a flaw?
(2011)
The rise in global connectivity driven by user-demand is bringing about a wave of end-user interconnectivity applications. This, coupled with the improvements in software security that have forced a shift from syntactic ...
DAS Writeback: A Collaborative Annotation System
(BioMed Central Ltd, 2011)
BACKGROUND: Centralised resources such as GenBank and UniProt are perfect examples of the major international efforts that have been made to integrate and share biological information. However, additional data that adds ...
CryptDB: A Practical Encrypted Relational DBMS
(2011-01-26)
CryptDB is a DBMS that provides provable and practical privacy in the face of a compromised database server or curious database administrators. CryptDB works by executing SQL queries over encrypted data. At its core are ...
What is Decidable about Strings?
(2011-02-01)
We prove several decidability and undecidability results for the satisfiability/validity problem of formulas over a language of finite-length strings and integers (interpreted as lengths of strings). The atomic formulas ...
Flexible Execution of Plans with Choice and Uncertainty
(2011-01-15)
Dynamic plan execution strategies allow an autonomous agent to respond to uncertainties, while improving robustness and reducing the need for an overly conservative plan. Executives have improved robustness by expanding ...
Multi-Output Learning via Spectral Filtering
(2011-01-24)
In this paper we study a class of regularized kernel methods for vector-valued learning which are based on filtering the spectrum of the kernel matrix. The considered methods include Tikhonov regularization as a special ...
