Hundreds of millions of users each day submit queries to the Web search engine. The user queries are typically very short which makes query understanding a challenging problem. In...
—In kernel based regression techniques (such as Support Vector Machines or Least Squares Support Vector Machines) it is hard to analyze the influence of perturbed inputs on the ...
When solving systems of nonlinear equations with interval constraint methods, it has often been observed that many calls to contracting operators do not participate actively to th...
Abstract Selectivity estimation of a boolean query based on frequent itemsets can be solved by describing the problem by a linear program. However, the number of variables in the e...
A new approach to regression regularization called the Pairwise Elastic Net is proposed. Like the Elastic Net, it simultaneously performs automatic variable selection and continuo...
