We propose methods to classify lines of military chat, or posts, which contain items of interest. We evaluated several current text categorization and feature selection methodologi...
Recently, instead of selecting a single kernel, multiple kernel learning (MKL) has been proposed which uses a convex combination of kernels, where the weight of each kernel is opt...
We investigate methods for planning in a Markov Decision Process where the cost function is chosen by an adversary after we fix our policy. As a running example, we consider a rob...
