Solving stochastic optimization problems under partial observability, where one needs to adaptively make decisions with uncertain outcomes, is a fundamental but notoriously diffic...
Abstract. Query-by-example and query-by-keyword both suffer from the problem of "aliasing," meaning that example-images and keywords potentially have variable interpretat...
Deduplication, a key operation in integrating data from multiple sources, is a time-consuming, labor-intensive and domainspecific operation. We present our design of alias that us...
Many complex, real world phenomena are difficult to study directly using controlled experiments. Instead, the use of computer simulations has become commonplace as a feasible alte...
In lots of natural language processing tasks, the classes to be dealt with often occur heavily imbalanced in the underlying data set and classifiers trained on such skewed data t...
