Most approaches to learn classifiers for structured objects (e.g., images) use generative models in a classical Bayesian framework. However, state-of-the-art classifiers for vecto...
Independent Variable Group Analysis (IVGA) is a method for grouping dependent variables together while keeping mutually independent or weakly dependent variables in separate group...
