Given a point set $P\subset \mathbb{R}^d$, the kernel density estimate of $P$ is defined as \[ \overline{\mathcal{G}}_P(x) = \frac{1}{\left|P\right|}\sum_{p\in P}e^{-\left\lVert x-p \right\rVert^2} \] for any $x\in\mathbb{R}^d$. We study…
Unsupervised learning methods are well established in the area of anomaly detection and achieve state of the art performances on outlier datasets. Outliers play a significant role, since they bear the potential to distort the predictions of…
Coreset of a given dataset and loss function is usually a small weighed set that approximates this loss for every query from a given set of queries. Coresets have shown to be very useful in many applications. However, coresets construction…
