This paper describes a hybrid model that combines machine learning with linguistic heuristics for integrating unknown word identification with Chinese word segmentation. The model...
We consider the problem of revenue maximization in online auctions, that is, auctions in which bids are received and dealt with one-by-one. In this note, we demonstrate that resul...
We introduce a general-purpose learning machine that we call the Guaranteed Error Machine, or GEM, and two learning algorithms, a real GEM algorithm and an ideal GEM algorithm. Th...
