From N to N+1: Multiclass Transfer Incremental Learning

Barbara Caputo, Ilja Kuzborskij

Since the seminal work of Thrun [16], the learning to learn paradigm has been defined as the ability of an agent to improve its performance at each task with experience, with the number of tasks. Within the object categorization domain, the visual learning ...

KL-based Control of the Learning Schedule for Surrogate Black-Box Optimization

Ilya Loshchilov

This paper investigates the control of an ML component within the Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategy (CMA-ES) devoted to black-box optimization. The known CMA-ES weakness is its sample complexity, the number of evaluations of the objective fun ...

Boosting Binary Keypoint Descriptors

Pascal Fua, Vincent Lepetit, Tomasz Piotr Trzcinski, Christos Marios Christoudias

Binary keypoint descriptors provide an efficient alternative to their floating-point competitors as they enable faster processing while requiring less memory. In this paper, we propose a novel framework to learn an extremely compact binary descriptor we ca ...

Coordination and Sampling in Distributed Constraint Optimization

Brammert Ottens

The Distributed Constraint Optimization (DCOP) framework can be used to model a wide range of optimization problems that are inherently distributed. A distributed optimization problem can be viewed as a problem distributed over a set of agents, where agent ...

A survey and comparison of contemporary algorithms for computing the matrix geometric mean

In this paper we present a survey of various algorithms for computing matrix geometric means and derive new second-order optimization algorithms to compute the Karcher mean. These new algorithms are constructed using the standard definition of the Riemanni ...

Fast algorithm for blind optimization of optical systems. Statistics and methodology

Maria-Alexandra Paun

Adaptive Optics (AO) improves the efficiency of the optical devices in confocal imaging systems by reducing wavefront aberrations. Aberration is caused by imperfections within the system and reduces the optical signal to noise ratio of the resultant images ...

Ultra-Fast Optimization Algorithm for Sparse Multi Kernel Learning

Jie Luo

Many state-of-the-art approaches for Multi Kernel Learning (MKL) struggle at finding a compromise between performance, sparsity of the solution and speed of the optimization process. In this paper we look at the MKL problem at the same time from a learning ...

Speculative Linearizability

Rachid Guerraoui, Viktor Kuncak, Giuliano Losa

Linearizability is a key design methodology for reasoning about implementations of concurrent abstract data types in both shared memory and message passing systems. It provides the illusion that operations execute sequentially and fault-free, despite the a ...
