Abstract: Random projection is a simple technique that has had a number of applications in algorithm design. In the context of machine learning, it can provide insight into questions such as "why is a learning problem easier if data is separable by a large margin?" and "in what sense is choosing a kernel much like choosing a set of features?" This talk is intended to provide an introduction to random projection and to survey some simple learning algorithms and other applications to learning based... (Update)
