Title: Learning: Theory and Applications

Abstract: The problem of learning is one of the main gateways to making
intelligent machines and to understanding how the brain works. In this talk I
will give a brief overview of recent work on learning theory, including new
results on predictivity and stability of the solution of the learning problem. I
will then describe recent efforts in developing machines that learn for
applications such as visual recognition, computer graphics and bioinformatics.
