In the single rent-to-buy decision problem, without a priori knowledge of the amount of time a resource will be used we need to decide when to buy the resource, given that we can ...
This paper introduces RankOpt, a linear binary classifier which optimises the area under the ROC curve (the AUC). Unlike standard binary classifiers, RankOpt adopts the AUC stat...
This paper examines the induction of classification rules from examples using real-world data. Real-world data is almost always characterized by two features, which are important ...
Abstract--The question of polynomial learnability of probability distributions, particularly Gaussian mixture distributions, has recently received significant attention in theoreti...
