A core problem in data mining is to retrieve data in a easy and human friendly way. Automatically translating natural language questions into SQL queries would allow for the design...
This paper presents an approach to automatically optimizing the retrieval quality of search engines using clickthrough data. Intuitively, a good information retrieval system shoul...
The prevailing approach to evaluating classifiers in the machine learning community involves comparing the performance of several algorithms over a series of usually unrelated data...
The problem of record linkage focuses on determining whether two object descriptions refer to the same underlying entity. Addressing this problem effectively has many practical ap...
Research has shown promise in the design of large scale common sense probabilistic models to infer human state from environmental sensor data. These models have made use of mined ...
