Large margin learning of Continuous Density HMMs with a partially labeled dataset has been extensively studied in the speech and handwriting recognition fields. Yet due to the non...
Abstract. The practice of medicine is becoming increasingly evidencebased and clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) are necessary for advancing evidence-based medicine (EBM). We hypo...
We present a new type of multi-class learning algorithm called a linear-max algorithm. Linearmax algorithms learn with a special type of attribute called a sub-expert. A sub-exper...
Automatically categorizing documents into pre-defined topic hierarchies or taxonomies is a crucial step in knowledge and content management. Standard machine learning techniques ...
