In many machine learning problems, labeled training data is limited but unlabeled data is ample. Some of these problems have instances that can be factored into multiple views, ea...
This paper points out that many machine learning problems in IR should be and can be formalized in a novel way, referred to as `group-based learning'. In group-based learning...
Using an ensemble of classifiers instead of a single classifier has been shown to improve generalization performance in many machine learning problems [4, 16]. However, the exten...
Co-evolutionary algorithms (CEAs) have been applied to optimization and machine learning problems with often mediocre results. One of the causes for the unfulfilled expectations i...
A wide variety of machine learning problems can be described as minimizing a regularized risk functional, with different algorithms using different notions of risk and different r...

In real-world machine learning problems, it is very common that part of the input feature vector is incomplete: either not available, missing, or corrupted. In this paper, we pres...
