We show that linear value-function approximation is equivalent to a form of linear model approximation. We then derive a relationship between the model-approximation error and the...

The kernel-parameter is one of the few tunable parameters in Support Vector machines, controlling the complexity of the resulting hypothesis. Its choice amounts to model selection...

This paper describes an approach to the detection of stress in spoken New Zealand English. After identifying the vowel segments of the speech signal, the approach extracts two dif...

Feature selection is an important issue for object detection. In this paper, we propose an effective wrapper-based feature selection scheme using Binary Particle Swarm Optimizatio...
Recent work shows that Support vector machines (SVMs) can be solved efficiently in the primal. This paper follows this line of research and shows how to build sparse support vector...
