Empirical Inference: Festschrift in Honor of Vladimir N. Vapnik by Bernhard Schölkopf
English | EPUB | 2013 | 295 Pages | ISBN : 3642411355 | 3.4 MB
This book honours the outstanding contributions of Vladimir Vapnik, a rare example of a scientist for whom the following statements hold true simultaneously: his work led to the inception of a new field of research, the theory of statistical learning and empirical inference; he has lived to see the field blossom; and he is still as active as ever. He started analyzing learning algorithms in the 1960s and he invented the first version of the generalized portrait algorithm.
