In this paper we describe a new method to reduce the complexity of support vector machines by reducing the number of necessary support vectors included in their solutions. The red...
Spoken dialogue management strategy optimization by means of Reinforcement Learning (RL) is now part of the state of the art. Yet, there is still a clear mismatch between the comp...
We study the problem of finding the dominant eigenvector of the sample covariance matrix, under additional constraints on the vector: a cardinality constraint limits the number of...
The conditional distribution of a discrete variable y, given another discrete variable x, is often specified by assigning one multinomial distribution to each state of x. The cost...
Previous work on Natural Language Processing for Information Retrieval has shown the inadequateness of semantic and syntactic structures for both document retrieval and categoriza...
