Insights from Classifying Visual Concepts with Multiple Kernel Learning
Alexander Binder, Shinichi Nakajima, Marius Kloft +5
Combining information from various image features has become a standard technique in concept recognition tasks. However, the optimal way of fusing the resulting kernel functions is…
Regression for sets of polynomial equations
Franz Johannes Király, Paul von Bünau, Jan Saputra Müller +3
We propose a method called ideal regression for approximating an arbitrary system of polynomial equations by a system of a particular type. Using techniques from approximate comput…
Directional Variance Adjustment: improving covariance estimates for high-dimensional portfolio optimization
Daniel Bartz, Kerr Hatrick, Christian W. Hesse +2
Robust and reliable covariance estimates play a decisive role in financial and many other applications. An important class of estimators is based on Factor models. Here, we show by…
Algebraic Geometric Comparison of Probability Distributions
Franz J. Kiraly, Paul von Buenau, Frank C. Meinecke +2
We propose a novel algebraic framework for treating probability distributions represented by their cumulants such as the mean and covariance matrix. As an example, we consider the…
