This paper introduces the Patent Mining Task of the Seventh NTCIR Workshop and the test collections produced in this task. The task's goal was the classification of research ...
Incomplete data is a common drawback that machine learning techniques need to deal with when solving real-life classification tasks. One of the most popular procedures for solving ...
In applications such as character recognition, some classes are heavily overlapped but are not necessarily to be separated. For classification of such overlapping classes, either d...
Manual categorisation of documents is a time-consuming task that has been significantly alleviated with the deployment of automatic and machine-aided text categorisation systems. ...
Classical data mining algorithms implicitly assume complete access to all data, either in centralized or federated form. However, privacy and security concerns often prevent sharin...
