Most image understanding algorithms begin with the extraction of information thought to be relevant to the particular task. This is commonly known as feature extraction and has, u...
One of the major tasks of evolutionary biology is the reconstruction of phylogenetic trees from molecular data. The evolutionary model is given by a Markov chain on the true evolu...
Most highly accurate predictive modeling techniques produce opaque models. When comprehensible models are required, rule extraction is sometimes used to generate a transparent mod...
We present DL8, an exact algorithm for finding a decision tree that optimizes a ranking function under size, depth, accuracy and leaf constraints. Because the discovery of optimal...
— The optimization of classification systems is often confronted by the solution over-fit problem. Solution over-fit occurs when the optimized classifier memorizes the traini...
