We prove existence and uniqueness of the minimizer for the average geodesic distance to the points of a geodesically convex set on the sphere. This implies a corresponding existen...
We study the problem of minimizing the expected loss of a linear predictor while constraining its sparsity, i.e., bounding the number of features used by the predictor. While the r...

In this paper, we describe CALM, a method for building statistical language models for the Web. CALM addresses several unique challenges dealing with the Web contents. First, CALM...
—High level languages greatly increase the power of a programmer at the cost of programs that consume more s than those written at a lower level of abstraction. This inefficienc...
