Using Adaptive Tracking to Classify and Monitor Activities in a Site
We describe a vision system that monitors activity in a site over extended periods of time. The system uses a distributed set of sensors to cover the site, and an adaptive tracker...

Improving the Detection of Unknown Computer Worms Activity Using Active Learning
Detecting unknown worms is a challenging task. Extant solutions, such as anti-virus tools, rely mainly on prior explicit knowledge of specific worm signatures. As a result, after t...

The True Sample Complexity of Active Learning
We describe and explore a new perspective on the sample complexity of active learning. In many situations where it was generally believed that active learning does not help, we sh...

Employing EM and Pool-Based Active Learning for Text Classification
This paper shows how a text classifier's need for labeled training documents can be reduced by taking advantage of a large pool of unlabeled documents. We modify the Query-by...
