Negative Training Data Can be Harmful to Text Classification
This paper studies the effects of training data on binary text classification and postulates that negative training data is not needed and may even be harmful for the task. Tradit...

Learning Classifiers from Imbalanced Data Based on Biased Minimax Probability Machine
We consider the problem of the binary classification on imbalanced data, in which nearly all the instances are labelled as one class, while far fewer instances are labelled as the...

New Bounds and Approximations for the Error of Linear Classifiers
In this paper, we derive lower and upper bounds for the probability of error for a linear classifier, where the random vectors representing the underlying classes obey the multivar...
