This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 19th Annual Conference on Learning Theory, COLT 2006, held in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA, June 2006. The book presents 43 revised full papers together with 2 articles on open problems and 3 invited lectures. The papers cover a wide range of topics including clustering, un- and semi-supervised learning, statistical learning theory, regularized learning and kernel methods, query learning and teaching, inductive inference, and more.

A self-contained and coherent account of probabilistic techniques, covering: distance measures, kernel rules, nearest neighbour rules, Vapnik-Chervonenkis theory, parametric classification, and feature extraction. Both research workers and graduate students will benefit from this wide-ranging and up-to-date account of a fast- moving field.

Density estimation has evolved enormously since the days of bar plots and histograms, but researchers and users are still struggling with the problem of the selection of the bin widths.
