Identifying the appropriate kernel function/matrix for a given dataset is essential to all kernel-based learning techniques. A variety of kernel learning algorithms have been prop...
Active learning may hold the key for solving the data scarcity problem in supervised learning, i.e., the lack of labeled data. Indeed, labeling data is a costly process, yet an ac...
Active learning methods seek to reduce the number of labeled examples needed to train an effective classifier, and have natural appeal in spam filtering applications where trustwo...
Large-scale text categorization is an important research topic for Web data mining. One of the challenges in large-scale text categorization is how to reduce the amount of human e...
Selective sampling, a form of active learning, reduces the cost of labeling training data by asking only for the labels of the most informative unlabeled examples. We introduce a ...
