This paper argues that severe class imbalance is not just an interesting technical challenge that improved learning algorithms will address, it is much more serious. To be useful, ...
Gaussian mixture models (GMMs) are a convenient and essential tool for the estimation of probability density functions. Although GMMs are used in many research domains from image ...
This paper demonstrates how machine learning methods can be applied to deal with a realworld decipherment problem where very little background knowledge is available. The goal is ...
Many statistical translation models can be regarded as weighted logical deduction. Under this paradigm, we use weights from the expectation semiring (Eisner, 2002), to compute fir...
Performance tuning is an important and time consuming task which may have to be repeated for each new application and platform. Although iterative optimisation can automate this p...
