Key Claims

We show that this kernel can instead be learned by alignment, and develop the resulting framework through the recently introduced Collaborative Learning and Inference (CLaI).
We show that Collaborative Learning can be viewed as a kernel alignment process, in which an embedding is trained so that its induced similarity matches a label-derived target kernel.
We also prove that Collaborative Inference is equivalent to kernel Bayes classification with Parzen-window density es...
