Improving the AUC of Probabilistic Estimation Trees
Abstract. In this work we investigate several issues in order to improve the performance of probabilistic estimation trees (PETs). First, we derive a new probability smoothing that...

Using ghost edges for classification in sparsely labeled networks
We address the problem of classification in partially labeled networks (a.k.a. within-network classification) where observed class labels are sparse. Techniques for statistical re...
