New Support Vector Algorithms

TLDR
A new class of support vector algorithms for regression and classification that eliminates one of the other free parameters of the algorithm: the accuracy parameter in the regression case, and the regularization constant C in the classification case.
Abstract
We propose a new class of support vector algorithms for regression and classification. In these algorithms, a parameter ν lets one effectively control the number of support vectors. While this can be useful in its own right, the parameterization has the additional benefit of enabling us to eliminate one of the other free parameters of the algorithm: the accuracy parameter epsilon in the regression case, and the regularization constant C in the classification case. We describe the algorithms, give some theoretical results concerning the meaning and the choice of ν, and report experimental results.

Learning Bounds for Risk-sensitive Learning

TL;DR: This paper proposes to study the generalization properties of risk-sensitive learning schemes whose optimand is described via optimized certainty equivalents (OCE): the general scheme can handle various known risks, e.g., the entropic risk, mean-variance, and conditional value-at-risk, as special cases.
