Previous work has shown that intra-program optimizations, i.e., optimizations performed on individual programs in isolation, can be very effective in reducing disk energy in stre...
For a mobile robot to act autonomously, it must be able to construct a model of its interaction with the environment. Oates et al. developed an unsupervised learning method that pr...
This paper presents a supervised approach for identifying generic noun phrases in context. Generic statements express rulelike knowledge about kinds or events. Therefore, their id...
Abstract. Sigmoidal or radial transfer functions do not guarantee the best generalization nor fast learning of neural networks. Families of parameterized transfer functions provide...
Support vector machine (SVM) is one of the most popular and promising classification algorithms. After a classification rule is constructed via the SVM, it is essential to evaluat...
