Informal learning from university students' perspective [PDF]
Specijalna Edukacija i Rehabilitacija, 2018 The crisis of formal education leads to constant reconsiderations, both at national and global level. It is considered that educational theory, practice and policy focus dominantly on the formal context of learning while they ignore learning in all other

Information-theoretic metric learning [PDF]
Proceedings of the 24th international conference on Machine learning, 2007 In this paper, we present an information-theoretic approach to learning a Mahalanobis distance function. We formulate the problem as that of minimizing the differential relative entropy between two multivariate Gaussians under constraints on the distance function. We express this problem as a particular Bregman optimization problem---that of minimizing

Learning with prior information [PDF]
2000 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems. Emerging Technologies for the 21st Century. Proceedings (IEEE Cat No.00CH36353), 2001 A new notion of learnability with prior information is studied: Instead of considering each target function separately, a probability measure on the set of target functions is introduced, quantifying the relative importance assigned to different targets.

Learning the Information Divergence [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, 2015 Information divergence that measures the difference between two nonnegative matrices or tensors has found its use in a variety of machine learning problems. Examples are Nonnegative Matrix/Tensor Factorization, Stochastic Neighbor Embedding, topic models, and Bayesian network optimization.
