The choice of the kernel function which determines the mapping between the input space and the feature space is of crucial importance to kernel methods. The past few years have se...
The goal of transfer learning is to improve the learning of a new target concept given knowledge of related source concept(s). We introduce the first boosting-based algorithms for...
With the rapid growth of computer and Internet technologies, e-learning has become a major trend in the computer assisted teaching and learning fields. Most past researches for we...
The choice of the kernel function is crucial to most applications of support vector machines. In this paper, however, we show that in the case of text classification, term-frequenc...
