Feature selection, as a preprocessing step to machine learning, has been very effective in reducing dimensionality, removing irrelevant data, increasing learning accuracy, and imp...
The assumptions underlying the Probability Ranking Principle (PRP) have led to a number of alternative approaches that cater or compensate for the PRP’s limitations. In this pos...

We consider the problem of routing in a delay tolerant network (DTN) in the presence of path failures. Previous work on DTN routing has focused on using precisely known network dy...

This paper describes an approach being explored to improve the usefulness of machine learning techniques for generating classification rules for complex, real world data. The appr...
We study the prevalent problem when a test distribution differs from the training distribution. We consider a setting where our training set consists of a small number of sample d...
