We show how features can easily be added to standard generative models for unsupervised learning, without requiring complex new training methods. In particular, each component mul...

Many machine learning algorithms require the summation of Gaussian kernel
functions, an expensive operation if implemented straightforwardly. Several methods
have been proposed t...

The main result of this paper is a near-optimal derandomization of the affine homomorphism test of Blum, Luby and Rubinfeld (Journal of Computer and System Sciences, 1993). We sho...
We propose a programming paradigm called compress-and-conquer (CC) that leads to optimal performance on multicore platforms. Given a multicore system of p cores and a problem of s...
The ability to pinpoint the geographic location of IP hosts is compelling for applications such as on-line advertising and network attack diagnosis. While prior methods can accurat...
