Support Vector Machines (SVMs) suffer from an O(n2 ) training cost, where n denotes the number of training instances. In this paper, we propose an algorithm to select boundary ins...
Recently, a very appealing approach was proposed to compute the entire solution path for support vector classification (SVC) with very low extra computational cost. This approach ...
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...
In this paper, we present a new interpretation of AdaBoost.ECC and AdaBoost.OC. We show that AdaBoost.ECC performs stage-wise functional gradient descent on a cost function, defin...
When the goal is to achieve the best correct classification rate, cross entropy and mean squared error are typical cost functions used to optimize classifier performance. However,...
