In the standard feature selection problem, we are given a fixed set of candidate features for use in a learning problem, and must select a subset that will be used to train a mode...
This paper investigates how the splitting criteria and pruning methods of decision tree learning algorithms are influenced by misclassification costs or changes to the class distr...
There has been significant recent interest in sparse metric learning (SML) in which we simultaneously learn both a good distance metric and a low-dimensional representation. Unfor...
Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) are a class of evolutionary algorithms that use machine learning techniques to solve optimization problems. Machine learning is used t...
