Pardis Noorzad will be giving an mPrime talk tomorrow (Monday, March 12th) at 15h00. The talk will tentatively be held in AA3195, of the Pavillon Andre-Aisenstadt http://www.umontreal.ca/plancampus/pavillons/pav20.html at the Université de Montréal. An email will be sent tomorrow morning should there be a change in location. Hope to see you there !
When: Tomorrow, Monday March 12th, 2012 Where: TBA, tentatively AA3195
Title: "SPARROW: Sparse approximation weighted regression"
Abstract: We propose sparse approximation weighted regression (SPARROW), which is a nonparametric method of regression that takes advantage of the sparse linear approximation of a query point. SPARROW employs weights based on sparse approximation in the context of locally constant, locally linear, and locally quadratic regression to generate better estimates than for e.g., k-nearest neighbor regression and more generally, kernel-weighted local polynomial regression. Our experimental results show that SPARROW performs competitively.
This is joint work with Prof. Bob L. Sturm.
