We introduce a computationally feasible, "constructive" active learning method for binary classification. The learning algorithm is initially formulated for separable cl...
For many supervised learning tasks it may be infeasible (or very expensive) to obtain objective and reliable labels. Instead, we can collect subjective (possibly noisy) labels fro...

This paper presents a method that assists in maintaining a rule-based named-entity recognition and classification system. The underlying idea is to use a separate system, construc...

We propose an algorithm called query by committee, in which a committee of students is trained on the same data set. The next query is chosen according to the principle of maximal...

Statistical learning methods are commonly applied in content-based video and image retrieval. Such methods require a large number of examples which are usually obtained through a ...
