Comparison of Strategies Based on Evolutionary Computation for the Design of Similarity Functions
One of the main keys in case-based reasoning system is the retrieval phase, where the most similar cases are retrieved by means of a similarity function. According to the problem, ...

How Good Is a Kernel When Used as a Similarity Measure?
Recently, Balcan and Blum [1] suggested a theory of learning based on general similarity functions, instead of positive semi-definite kernels. We study the gap between the learnin...
