Most clustering algorithms produce a single clustering for a given data set even when the data can be clustered naturally in multiple ways. In this paper, we address the difficult...
The performance of graph based clustering methods critically depends on the quality of the distance function, used to compute similarities between pairs of neighboring nodes. In t...
Evaluating rankers using implicit feedback, such as clicks on documents in a result list, is an increasingly popular alternative to traditional evaluation methods based on explici...
Previous studies of Non-Parametric Kernel (NPK) learning usually reduce to solving some Semi-Definite Programming (SDP) problem by a standard SDP solver. However, time complexity ...
Similarity search methods are widely used as kernels in various data mining and machine learning applications including those in computational biology, web search/clustering. Near...
