High-Dimensional Kernel Methods under Covariate Shift: Data-Dependent Implicit Regularization

Volkan Cevher, Fanghui Liu

This paper studies kernel ridge regression in high dimensions under covariate shifts and analyzes the role of importance re-weighting. We first derive the asymptotic expansion of high dimensional kernels under covariate shifts. By a bias-variance decomposi ...

The very knotty lenser: Exploring the role of regularization in source and potential reconstructions using Gaussian process regression

Georgios Vernardos

Reconstructing lens potentials and lensed sources can easily become an underconstrained problem, even when the degrees of freedom are low, due to degeneracies, particularly when potential perturbations superimposed on a smooth lens are included. Regulariza ...
