We present new fingerprint classification algorithms based on two machine learning approaches: support vector machines (SVMs), and recursive neural networks (RNNs). RNNs are traine...

Abstract. It has been shown that many kernel methods can be equivalently formulated as minimal-enclosing-ball (MEB) problems in certain feature space. Exploiting this reduction eff...

The performance of a kernel-based learning algorithm depends very much on the choice of the kernel. Recently, much attention has been paid to the problem of learning the kernel it...

Abstract. We propose a new string kernel based on variable-lengthdon't-care patterns (VLDC patterns). A VLDC pattern is an element of ({}) , where is an alphabet and is the ...
The use of Mercer kernel methods in statistical learning theory provides for strong learning capabilities, as seen in kernel principal component analysis and support vector machin...
