Abstract--We investigate parameter-based and distributionbased approaches to regularizing the generative, similarity-based classifier called local similarity discriminant analysis ...
The study of common, complex multifactorial diseases in genetic epidemiology is complicated by nonlinearity in the genotype-to-phenotype mapping relationship that is due, in part,...

A maximum-entropy approach to generative similarity-based classifiers model is proposed. First, a descriptive set of similarity statistics is assumed to be sufficient for classifi...
