We present a novel linear clustering framework (DIFFRAC) which relies on a linear discriminative cost function and a convex relaxation of a combinatorial optimization problem. The...
The focus of research in text classification has expanded from simple topic identification to more challenging tasks such as opinion/modality identification. Unfortunately, the la...
Standard pattern recognition provides effective and noise-tolerant tools for machine learning tasks; however, most approaches only deal with real vectors of a finite and fixed dime...
The aim of this paper is to provide a sound framework for addressing a difficult problem: the automatic construction of an autonomous agent's modular architecture. We briefly...
In this paper we propose a new nonparametric regression algorithm based on Fuzzy systems with overlapping concepts. We analyze its consistency properties, showing that it is capab...
