String kernels which compare the set of all common substrings between two given strings have recently been proposed by Vishwanathan & Smola (2004). Surprisingly, these kernels...
In many multiclass learning scenarios, the number of classes is relatively large (thousands,...), or the space and time efficiency of the learning system can be crucial. We invest...
Task-selection policies are critical to the performance of any architecture that uses speculation to extract parallel tasks from a sequential thread. This paper demonstrates that ...
