Closed-form dual perturb and combine for tree-based models
This paper studies the aggregation of predictions made by tree-based models for several perturbed versions of the attribute vector of a test case. A closed-form approximation of t...

Deterministic annealing for semi-supervised kernel machines
An intuitive approach to utilizing unlabeled data in kernel-based classification algorithms is to simply treat unknown labels as additional optimization variables. For marginbased...

On Universal Restart Strategies for Backtracking Search
Abstract. Constraint satisfaction and propositional satisfiability problems are often solved using backtracking search. Previous studies have shown that a technique called randomi...

Maximum Likelihood in Cost-Sensitive Learning: Model Specification, Approximations, and Upper Bounds
The presence of asymmetry in the misclassification costs or class prevalences is a common occurrence in the pattern classification domain. While much interest has been devoted to ...
