This paper addresses personal E-mail filtering by casting it in the framework of text classification. Modeled as semi-structured documents, Email messages consist of a set of field...
— Both theory and a wealth of empirical studies have established that ensembles are more accurate than single predictive models. Unfortunately, the problem of how to maximize ens...
Current semi-supervised incremental learning approaches select unlabeled examples with predicted high confidence for model re-training. We show that for many applications this dat...
