Abstract. In face recognition, a simple classifier such as NNk − is frequently used. For a robust system, it is common to construct the multiclass classifier by combining the out...
This paper reports a controlled study with statistical signi cance tests on ve text categorization methods: the Support Vector Machines (SVM), a k-Nearest Neighbor (kNN) classi er...
We present an approach to pronoun resolution based on syntactic paths. Through a simple bootstrapping procedure, we learn the likelihood of coreference between a pronoun and a can...
An efficient method for face recognition which is robust under illumination variations is proposed. The proposed method achieves the illumination invariants based on the reflectan...
—Adapting the hyperparameters of support vector machines (SVMs) is a challenging model selection problem, especially when flexible kernels are to be adapted and data are scarce....
