Active Learning by John Langford Sanjoy Dasgupta @VideoLectures oer

Active learning is defined by contrast to the passive model of supervised learning where all the labels for learning are obtained without reference to the learning algorithm, while... Watch Video

Agnostic Active Learning by John Langford @VideoLectures.net oer

The great promise of active learning is that via interaction the number of samples required can be reduced to logarithmic in the number required for standard batch supervised learning... Watch Video

Fast Exact Nearest Neighbor in Arbitrary by John Langford @VideoLectures

Given only a metric between points, how quickly can the nearest neighbor of a point be found In the worst case, this time is O(n). When these points happen to obey a dimensionality... Watch Video

Generalization bounds by John Langford @VideoLectures.net oer ocw

When a learning algorithm produces a classifier, a natural question to ask is "How well will it do in the future" To make statements about the future given the past, some... Watch Video
