This paper describes a method for improving the final accuracy and the convergence speed of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) by adapting its inertia factor in the velocity updati...
Link farm spam and replicated pages can greatly deteriorate link-based ranking algorithms like HITS. In order to identify and neutralize link farm spam and replicated pages, we lo...
In this paper, we propose classifier ensemble selection for Named Entity Recognition (NER) as a single objective optimization problem. Thereafter, we develop a method based on gen...
When we evaluate the quality of recommender systems (RS), most approaches only focus on the predictive accuracy of these systems. Recent works suggest that beyond accuracy there i...
