ROC analysis is increasingly being recognised as an important tool for evaluation and comparison of classifiers when the operating characteristics (i.e. class distribution and cos...
We empirically evaluate several state-of-theart methods for constructing ensembles of heterogeneous classifiers with stacking and show that they perform (at best) comparably to se...
In many reinforcement learning applications, the set of possible actions can be partitioned by the programmer into subsets of similar actions. This paper presents a technique for ...
The naive classifier is a well-established mathematical model whose simplicity, speed and accuracy have made it a popular choice for classification in AI and engineering. In this ...
Classification of email is an important everyday task for a large and growing number of users. This paper describes the machine learning approaches underlying the i-ems (Intellige...
We propose a new statistical approach to extracting personal names from a corpus. One of the key points of our approach is that it can both automatically learn the characteristics...
