The traditional SPM approach based on bag-of-features (BoF) must use nonlinear classifiers to achieve good image classification performance. This paper presents a simple but effec...
Accurate topical classification of user queries allows for increased effectiveness and efficiency in general-purpose web search systems. Such classification becomes critical if th...

Error correcting output codes (ECOC) represent a successful extension of binary classifiers to address the multiclass problem. Lately, the ECOC framework was extended from the bina...
Recent studies in protein sequence analysis have leveraged the power of unlabeled data. For example, the profile and mismatch neighborhood kernels have shown significant improveme...
In this paper, we explore the use of Random Forests (RFs) in the structured language model (SLM), which uses rich syntactic information in predicting the next word based on words ...
