The problem of extracting a minimal number of data points from a large dataset, in order to generate a support vector machine (SVM) classifier, is formulated as a concave minimiza...
We introduce a semi-supervised support vector machine (S3 VM) method. Given a training set of labeled data and a working set of unlabeled data, S3 VM constructs a support vector m...
Support vector (SV) machines are useful tools to classify populations characterized by abrupt decreases in density functions. At least for one class of Gaussian data model the SV ...
When dealing with pattern recognition problems one encounters different types of a-priori knowledge. It is important to incorporate such knowledge into the classification method ...
We describe a simple active learning heuristic which greatly enhances the generalization behavior of support vector machines (SVMs) on several practical document classification ta...
