    • Learning Generic Invariances in Object Recognition: Translation and Scale 

      Leibo, Joel Z; Mutch, Jim; Rosasco, Lorenzo; Ullman, Shimon; Poggio, Tomaso (2010-12-30)
      Invariance to various transformations is key to object recognition but existing definitions of invariance are somewhat confusing while discussions of invariance are often confused. In this report, we provide an operational ...

    • Conservative Rationalizability and The Second-Knowledge Mechanism 

      Chen, Jing; Micali, Silvio (2010-12-20)
      In mechanism design, the traditional way of modeling the players' incomplete information about their opponents is "assuming a Bayesian." This assumption, however, is very strong and does not hold in many real applications. ...

    • Conservative-Bayesian Mechanism Design 

      Azar, Pablo; Chen, Jing; Micali, Silvio (2010-12-20)
      Classical Bayesian mechanism design is "centralized," that is, the designer is assumed to know the distribution D from which the players' type profile has been drawn. We instead investigate a very "decentralized" Bayesian ...
