In this paper, we present a very fast and accurate rectilinear Steiner minimal tree (RSMT)1 algorithm called FLUTE. The algorithm is an extension of the wirelength estimation appr...
—Some data mining problems require predictive models to be not only accurate but also comprehensible. Comprehensibility enables human inspection and understanding of the model, m...
We proposed a new approach to compare profiles when the correlations among attributes can be represented as a tree. To account for these correlations, the profile is extended with...
