On cross-validation and stacking: building seemingly predictive models on random data
A number of times when using cross-validation (CV) while trying to do classification/probability estimation we have observed surprisingly low AUC's on real data with very few...

On the influence of ship motion prediction accuracy on motion planning and control of robotic manipulators on seaborne platforms
Robotic manipulators on non-inertial platforms, such as ships, have to endure large inertial forces due to the non-inertial motion of the platform. When the non-inertial platform&#...
