MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate a large proportion of mammalian genes by hybridizing to targeted messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and down-regulating their translation into protein. Although mu...
This paper presents a method for learning a distance metric from relative comparison such as “A is closer to B than A is to C”. Taking a Support Vector Machine (SVM) approach,...
We present the use of layered probabilistic representations for modeling human activities, and describe how we use the representation to do sensing, learning, and inference at mul...
In many data mining applications, online labeling feedback is only available for examples which were predicted to belong to the positive class. Such applications include spam filt...
Multi-category classification of short dialogues is a common task performed by humans. When assigning a question to an expert, a customer service operator tries to classify the cu...
