The Learning-Curve Sampling Method Applied to Model-Based Clustering
We examine the learning-curve sampling method, an approach for applying machinelearning algorithms to large data sets. The approach is based on the observation that the computatio...

Considering Cost Asymmetry in Learning Classifiers
Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves are a standard way to display the performance of a set of binary classifiers for all feasible ratios of the costs associated with fa...

Nonparametric estimation of the precision-recall curve
The Precision-Recall (PR) curve is a widely used visual tool to evaluate the performance of scoring functions in regards to their capacities to discriminate between two population...

An Analysis of Rule Evaluation Metrics
In this paper we analyze the most popular evaluation metrics for separate-and-conquer rule learning algorithms. Our results show that all commonly used heuristics, including accur...

Automatically countering imbalance and its empirical relationship to cost
Learning from imbalanced datasets presents a convoluted problem both from the modeling and cost standpoints. In particular, when a class is of great interest but occurs relatively...
