Abstract. Bottom-up approaches, which rely mainly on continuity principles, are often insufficient to form accurate segments in natural images. In order to improve performance, rec...
In this paper, a new selective sampling method for the active learning framework is presented. Initially, a small training set ? and a large unlabeled set ? are given. The goal is...
We consider the budget-constrained bidding optimization problem for sponsored search auctions, and model it as an online (multiple-choice) knapsack problem. We design both determi...
