The PAC-learning model is distribution-independent in the sense that the learner must reach a learning goal with a limited number of labeled random examples without any prior know...
Current methods for learning visual categories work well when a large amount of labeled data is available, but can run into severe difficulties when the number of labeled examples...
Dimensionality reduction and feature selection in particular are known to be of a great help for making supervised learning more effective and efficient. Many different feature sel...
Transduction is an inference mechanism “from particular to particular”. Its application to classification tasks implies the use of both labeled (training) data and unlabeled (...
Abstract. Multiple-instance learning (MIL) allows for training classifiers from ambiguously labeled data. In computer vision, this learning paradigm has been recently used in many ...
