Boosting algorithms build highly accurate prediction mechanisms from a collection of lowaccuracy predictors. To do so, they employ the notion of weak-learnability. The starting po...
: A series of hypotheses is proposed, connecting neural structures and dynamics with the formal structures and processes of probabilistic logic. First, a hypothetical connection is...
We explore a stacked framework for learning to predict dependency structures for natural language sentences. A typical approach in graph-based dependency parsing has been to assum...
Stochastic relational models (SRMs) [15] provide a rich family of choices for learning and predicting dyadic data between two sets of entities. The models generalize matrix factor...
We introduce a framework for actively learning visual categories from a mixture of weakly and strongly labeled image examples. We propose to allow the categorylearner to strategic...
