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.
