Abstract. Relevance feedback (RF) has been an effective query modification approach to improving the performance of information retrieval (IR) by interactively asking a user whet...
Standard hybrid learners that use domain knowledge require stronger knowledge that is hard and expensive to acquire. However, weaker domain knowledge can benefit from prior knowle...
: Applications such as Face Recognition (FR) that deal with high-dimensional data need a mapping technique that introduces representation of low-dimensional features with enhanced ...
Active learning (AL) is a framework that attempts to reduce the cost of annotating training material for statistical learning methods. While a lot of papers have been presented on...
: We propose a new nonparametric family of oscillation heuristics for improving linear classifiers in the two-group discriminant problem. The heuristics are motivated by the intuit...
