When only a small number of labeled samples are available, supervised dimensionality reduction methods tend to perform poorly due to overfitting. In such cases, unlabeled samples ...
Abstract. Obtaining ground truth for hyperspectral data is an expensive task. In addition, a number of factors cause the spectral signatures of the same class to vary with location...
Distance metric learning has been widely investigated in machine learning and information retrieval. In this paper, we study a particular content-based image retrieval application ...
Active learning [1] is a branch of Machine Learning in which the learning algorithm, instead of being directly provided with pairs of problem instances and their solutions (their l...
