We present an algorithm which partitions a data set in two parts with equal size and experimentally nearly the same distribution measured through the likelihood of a Parzen kernel ...
— Decision rules generated from reducts can fully describe a data set. We introduce a new method of evaluating rules by taking advantage of rough sets theory. We consider rules g...
This paper explores two classes of model adaptation methods for Web search ranking: Model Interpolation and error-driven learning approaches based on a boosting algorithm. The res...
