In this paper we define a novel similarity measure between examples of textual entailments and we use it as a kernel function in Support Vector Machines (SVMs). This allows us to ...
This paper presents a method for learning a distance metric from relative comparison such as “A is closer to B than A is to C”. Taking a Support Vector Machine (SVM) approach,...
We introduce a semi-supervised support vector machine (S3 VM) method. Given a training set of labeled data and a working set of unlabeled data, S3 VM constructs a support vector m...
