The core of the new product development [NPD] process centers on knowledge creation, utilization and the management of knowledge. This manuscript uses a software firm case to esta...
In this paper, we propose a novel component-wise smoothing algorithm that constructs a hierarchy (or family) of smoothened log-likelihood surfaces. Our approach first smoothens th...
We investigate an improvement to GSAT which associates a weight with each clause. We change the objective function so that GSAT moves to assignments maximizing the weight of satis...
Unsupervised learning methods often involve summarizing the data using a small number of parameters. In certain domains, only a small subset of the available data is relevant for ...
Optimally designing the location of training input points (active learning) and choosing the best model (model selection) are two important components of supervised learning and h...
