Exploration and Exploitation in Adaptive Filtering Based on Bayesian Active Learning
In the task of adaptive information filtering, a system receives a stream of documents but delivers only those that match a person's information need. As the system filters i...

Learning Metrics via Discriminant Kernels and Multidimensional Scaling: Toward Expected Euclidean Representation
Distance-based methods in machine learning and pattern recognition have to rely on a metric distance between points in the input space. Instead of specifying a metric a priori, we...

Optimizing Classifier Performance via an Approximation to the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney Statistic
When the goal is to achieve the best correct classification rate, cross entropy and mean squared error are typical cost functions used to optimize classifier performance. However,...

Decision-tree Induction from Time-series Data Based on a Standard-example Split Test
This paper proposes a novel decision tree for a data set with time-series attributes. Our time-series tree has a value (i.e. a time sequence) of a time-series attribute in its int...

Cross-Entropy Directed Embedding of Network Data
We present a novel approach to embedding data represented by a network into a lowdimensional Euclidean space. Unlike existing methods, the proposed method attempts to minimize an ...

Principled Methods for Advising Reinforcement Learning Agents
An important issue in reinforcement learning is how to incorporate expert knowledge in a principled manner, especially as we scale up to real-world tasks. In this paper, we presen...

Learning Mixture Models with the Latent Maximum Entropy Principle
We present a new approach to estimating mixture models based on a new inference principle we have proposed: the latent maximum entropy principle (LME). LME is different both from ...
