Escaping the Curse of Dimensionality in Similarity Learning: Efficient Frank-Wolfe Algorithm and Generalization Bounds

Kuan Liu, Aurélien Bellet

Similarity and metric learning provides a principled approach to construct a task-specific similarity from weakly supervised data. However, these methods are subject to the curse o…

WMRB: Learning to Rank in a Scalable Batch Training Approach

Kuan Liu, Prem Natarajan

We propose a new learning to rank algorithm, named Weighted Margin-Rank Batch loss (WMRB), to extend the popular Weighted Approximate-Rank Pairwise loss (WARP). WMRB uses a new ran…

A Comparison between Deep Neural Nets and Kernel Acoustic Models for Speech Recognition

Zhiyun Lu, Dong Guo, Alireza Bagheri Garakani +8

We study large-scale kernel methods for acoustic modeling and compare to DNNs on performance metrics related to both acoustic modeling and recognition. Measuring perplexity and fra…
