—We review the principles of Minimum Description Length and Stochastic Complexity as used in data compression and statistical modeling. Stochastic complexity is formulated as the...
The minimum singular value (MSV) rule is a useful tool for selecting controlled variables (CVs) from the available measurements. However, the application of the MSV rule to large-...
This paper explores the application of the Minimum Description Length principle for pruning decision trees. We present a new algorithm that intuitively captures the primary goal o...
Decision tree induction techniques attempt to find small trees that fit a training set of data. This preference for smaller trees, which provides a learning bias, is often justifie...

In this paper we present an improvement of the precision of classification algorithm results. Two various approaches are known: bagging and boosting. This paper describes a set of ...
