About CLLab

CLLab works on machine learning, the study that allows computational systems to adaptively improve their performance with experience accumulated from the data observed—external examples, feedback of the environment, or other pieces of information. The importance of machine learning is rapidly and continuously growing with collaboration opportunities on a broad spectrum of applications inside and outside of computer science. In multimedia, machines can learn to construct semantic structures of digital contents to help users in their search for the desired scene. In architecture, machines can learn to effectually manage computing resources, such as the laptop battery, based on the working pattern of the owner. In bioinformatics, machines can learn to identify cancer genes and suggest promising medicines. In e-commerce, machines can learn the preference of each individual customer and show targeted advertisements.

Fundamental machine learning research is driven by the following three major questions (directions):

  • How broadly can machines learn? (application)
  • How efficiently can machines learn? (algorithm)
  • How precisely can machines learn? (theory)

Research in CLLab usually starts from one of the directions above and then extends freely to other interconnected directions. Our goal is to develop state-of-the-art tools for various learning tasks based on sound theoretical principles. Some of our ongoing success stories include studies on ranking and cost-sensitive classification.
