Various semi-supervised learning methods have been proposed recently to solve the long-standing shortage problem of manually labeled data in sentiment classification. However, mos...
We present an approach for dictionary learning of action attributes via information maximization. We unify the class distribution and appearance information into an objective func...
For large, real-world inductive learning problems, the number of training examples often must be limited due to the costs associated with procuring, preparing, and storing the tra...
One problem of data-driven answer extraction in open-domain factoid question answering is that the class distribution of labeled training data is fairly imbalanced. This imbalance...

Sampling methods are a direct approach to tackle the problem of class imbalance. These methods sample a data set in order to alter the class distributions. Usually these methods ar...

Abstract. The distribution of a class of objects, such as images depicting a specific topic, can be studied by observing the best-matching units (BMUs) of the objects’ feature v...
In many practical domains, misclassification costs can differ greatly and may be represented by class ratios, however, most learning algorithms struggle with skewed class distrib...

In realistic settings the prevalence of a class may change after a classifier is induced and this will degrade the performance of the classifier. Further complicating this scenari...
