  1. f-GANs in an Information Geometric Nutshell

    2017 · arXiv (Cornell University)

    Nowozin \textit{et al} showed last year how to extend the GAN \textit{principle} to all $f$-divergences. The approach is elegant but falls short of a full description of the supervised game, and says little about the …

  2. Sparse Robust Classification via the Kernel Mean

    2015 · arXiv (Cornell University)

    Many leading classification algorithms output a classifier that is a weighted average of kernel evaluations. Optimizing these weights is a nontrivial problem that still attracts much research effort. Furthermore, explaining these methods to the uninitiated …

  3. Three Types of Calibration with Properties and their Semantic and Formal Relationships

    2025 · arXiv (Cornell University)

    Fueled by discussions around "trustworthiness" and algorithmic fairness, calibration of predictive systems has regained scholars attention. The vanilla definition and understanding of calibration is, simply put, on all days on which the rain probability has …
