The QuikSCAT scatterometer infers wind vectors over the ocean using measurements of the surface backscatter. During rain events the QuikSCAT observations are subject to rain conta...
Methods that reduce the amount of labeled data needed for training have focused more on selecting which documents to label than on which queries should be labeled. One exception t...
—Wireless ad hoc networks are connected to the fixed Internet by means of Internet gateways. Whenever a node within the ad hoc network wishes to communicate with a host in the I...
New feature selection algorithms for linear threshold functions are described which combine backward elimination with an adaptive regularization method. This makes them particular...
We present a new online learning algorithm in the selective sampling framework, where labels must be actively queried before they are revealed. We prove bounds on the regret of ou...
