Quantization of continuous variables is important in data analysis, especially for some model classes such as Bayesian networks and decision trees, which use discrete variables. Of...
Recently, the bag-of-words approach has been successfully applied to automatic image annotation, object recognition, etc. The method needs to first quantize an image using the vis...
We consider the problem of deriving class-size independent generalization bounds for some regularized discriminative multi-category classification methods. In particular, we obtai...
Many problems in information extraction, text mining, natural language processing and other fields exhibit the same property: multiple prediction tasks are related in the sense th...
