We present a pointwise approach to Japanese morphological analysis (MA) that ignores structure information during learning and tagging. Despite the lack of structure, it is able t...
Collaborative filtering is a useful technique for exploiting the preference patterns of a group of users to predict the utility of items for the active user. In general, the perfo...
The goal of active learning is to determine the locations of training input points so that the generalization error is minimized. We discuss the problem of active learning in line...
Although semi-supervised learning has been an active area of research, its use in deployed applications is still relatively rare because the methods are often difficult to impleme...
Methods that reduce the amount of labeled data needed for training have focused more on selecting which documents to label than on which queries should be labeled. One exception t...
