Contextual Search Using Ontology-Based User Profiles
Search engines, generally, return results without any regard for the concepts in which the user is interested. In this paper, we present our approach to personalizing search engin...

Extracting Useful Information from the Full Text of Fiction
In this paper, we describe some experiments in large-scale Information Extraction (IE) focusing on book texts. We investigate the scalability of IE techniques to full-sized books,...

Measuring Neural Synchrony by Message Passing
A novel approach to measure the interdependence of two time series is proposed, referred to as “stochastic event synchrony” (SES); it quantifies the alignment of two point pr...

Boosting the Area under the ROC Curve
We show that any weak ranker that can achieve an area under the ROC curve slightly better than 1/2 (which can be achieved by random guessing) can be effi

The discriminant center-surround hypothesis for bottom-up saliency
The classical hypothesis, that bottom-up saliency is a center-surround process, is combined with a more recent hypothesis that all saliency decisions are optimal in a decision-the...

Learning with Tree-Averaged Densities and Distributions
We utilize the ensemble of trees framework, a tractable mixture over superexponential number of tree-structured distributions [1], to develop a new model for multivariate density ...
