We describe a novel family of PAC model algorithms for learning linear threshold functions. The new algorithms work by boosting a simple weak learner and exhibit complexity bounds...
Fast and frugal heuristics are well studied models of bounded rationality. Psychological research has proposed the take-the-best heuristic as a successful strategy in decision mak...
Abstract. We study the problem of learning partitions using equivalence constraints as input. This is a binary classification problem in the product space of pairs of datapoints. ...
In high-dimensional classification problems it is infeasible to include enough training samples to cover the class regions densely. Irregularities in the resulting sparse sample d...
Abstract--A crucial issue in designing learning machines is to select the correct model parameters. When the number of available samples is small, theoretical sample-based generali...
