A major problem in machine learning is that of inductive bias: how to choose a learner's hypothesis space so that it is large enough to contain a solution to the problem bein...
This paper deals with content-based image retrieval. When the user is looking for large categories, statistical classification techniques are efficient as soon as the training se...

An ensemble is a group of learners that work together as a committee to solve a problem. However, the existing ensemble training algorithms sometimes generate unnecessary large en...
- This paper presents a variable node-to-node-link neural network (VN2 NN) trained by real-coded genetic algorithm (RCGA). The VN2 NN exhibits a node-to-node relationship in the hi...
In this paper, we propose a random network ensemble for face recognition problem, particularly for images with a large appearance variation and with a limited number of training se...
