This paper shows how a text classifier's need for labeled training documents can be reduced by taking advantage of a large pool of unlabeled documents. We modify the Query-by...
The task of causal structure discovery from empirical data is a fundamental problem in many areas. Experimental data is crucial for accomplishing this task. However, experiments a...
Methods that learn from prior information about input features such as generalized expectation (GE) have been used to train accurate models with very little effort. In this paper,...
Appropriately designing sampling policies is highly important for obtaining better control policies in reinforcement learning. In this paper, we first show that the least-squares ...
Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) model sequential data in many fields such as text/speech processing and biosignal analysis. Active learning algorithms learn faster and/or better by cl...
