In this paper we propose a scaling-up method that is applicable to essentially any induction algorithm based on discrete search. The result of applying the method to an algorithm ...
Classification trees are widely used in the machine learning and data mining communities for modeling propositional data. Recent work has extended this basic paradigm to probabili...

We present a novel classification model that is formulated as a ratio of semi-definite polynomials. We derive an efficient learning algorithm for this classifier, and apply it...
Abstract-- Extending traditional models for discriminative labeling of structured data to include higher-order structure in the labels results in an undesirable exponential increas...
Many ensemble methods, such as Bagging, Boosting, Random Forest, etc, have been proposed and widely used in real world applications. Some of them are better than others on noisefre...
