Based on studies and experiments on the loss term of SVMs, we argue that 1-norm measurement is better than 2-norm measurement for outlier resistance. Thus, we modify the previous 2...
An implicit assumption of many machine learning algorithms is that all attributes are of the same importance. An algorithm typically selects attributes based solely on their statis...
Feature selection, as a preprocessing step to machine learning, has been very effective in reducing dimensionality, removing irrelevant data, increasing learning accuracy, and imp...
Based on Information Theory, optimal feature selection should be carried out by searching Markov blankets. In this paper, we formally analyze the current Markov blanket discovery ...
Transfer learning is the ability of an agent to apply knowledge learned in previous tasks to new problems or domains. We approach this problem by focusing on model formulation, i....
