Regularization for Multi-Output Learning
Lorenzo Rosasco

Description

In many practical problems, it is convenient to model the object of interest as a function with multiple outputs. In machine learning, this problem typically goes under the name of multi-task or multi-output learning. We present some concepts and algorithms to solve these kinds of problems using kernel methods and regularization.
