이번 주 금요일(2/22) 기계항공공학부 로봇자동화 연구실에서 Tokyo institute of technology의 Masashi Sugiyama 교수를 모시고 세미나를 개최한다고 하오니, 관심 있으실 분들의 많은 참여를 부탁드립니다.
주제는 데이터를 이용한 information measure를 estimate하는 새로운 접근에 대한 발표이며, 기존의 KL-diveregence등의 information estimation방법들에 대한 비교와 리뷰가 포함될 예정이라고 합니다.
Masashi Sugiyama 교수는 기계학습 분야의 가장 권위있는 NIPS, ICML, AISTATS등의 컨퍼런스에 다수의 관련된 논문을 가지고 있습니다.

5. 내용 :
In statistical machine learning, avoiding density estimation is essential because it is often more difficult than solving a target machine learning problem itself. This is often referred to as Vapnik's principle, and the support vector machine is one of the successful realizations of this principle. Following this spirit, a new machine learning framework based on the ratio of probability density functions has been introduced. This density-ratio framework includes various important machine learning tasks such as transfer learning, outlier detection, feature selection, clustering, and conditional density estimation. All these tasks can be effectively and efficiently solved in a unified manner by direct estimating the density ratio without going through density estimation. In this talk, I give an overview of theory, algorithms, and application of density ratio estimation.
6. Bio :
Masashi Sugiyama is currently an associate professor of engineering in computer science at Tokyo Institute of Technology. His research interests are machine learning both in theories and in applications, and he has many experiences in treating signal processing, image processing and robot data. He received the Faculty Award from IBM for the research on learning under non-stationarity condition, and he received the Nagao Special Researcher Award from IPSJ for his contribution to the density-ratio paradigm for the information estimation problem.
