Reflections on distance learning

ACM SIGCSE Bulletin, 2007
Distance learning (DL) provides conditions that meet the constraints of individuals who work, raise a family, manage a household or serve in the military.

Distance metric learning by minimal distance maximization

Pattern Recognition, 2011
Classic linear dimensionality reduction (LDR) methods, such as principal component analysis (PCA) and linear discriminant analysis (LDA), are known not to be robust against outliers. Following a systematic analysis of the multi-class LDR problem in a unified framework, we propose a new algorithm, called minimal distance maximization (MDM), to address ...
