Abstract. The increased availability of biological databases containing representations of complex objects permits access to vast amounts of data. In spite of the recent renewed in...
In this paper, the implication of the relations of information in the case of multispectral images is analyzed. Higher-order mutual information can adopt positive or negative valu...
Ensembles are often capable of greater prediction accuracy than any of their individual members. As a consequence of the diversity between individual base-learners, an ensemble wil...

The mean running time of a Las Vegas algorithm can often be dramatically reduced by periodically restarting it with a fresh random seed. The optimal restart schedule depends on th...
