We consider the challenge of preference elicitation in systems that help users discover the most desirable item(s) within a given database. Past work on preference elicitation foc...
This paper reports a cross-benchmark evaluation of regularized logistic regression (LR) and incremental Rocchio for adaptive filtering. Using four corpora from the Topic Detection...
A parallel file may be physically stored on several independent disks and logically partitioned by several processors. This paper presents general algorithms for mapping between t...
Most models of utility elicitation in decision support and interactive optimization assume a predefined set of "catalog" features over which user preferences are express...
Scale-space representation of an image is a significant way to generate features for classification. However, for a specific classification task, the entire scale-space may not be...
