A Simple Lexicographic Ranker and Probability Estimator
Given a binary classification task, a ranker sorts a set of instances from highest to lowest expectation that the instance is positive. We propose a lexicographic ranker, LexRank,...

Input Decimation Ensembles: Decorrelation through Dimensionality Reduction
Using an ensemble of classifiers instead of a single classifier has been shown to improve generalization performance in many machine learning problems [4, 16]. However, the exten...
