Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a set of small non-coding RNAs serving as important negative gene regulators. In animals, miRNAs turn down protein translation by binding to the...
Searching and organizing growing digital music collections requires automatic classification of music. This paper describes a new system, tested on the task of artist identifica...
We develop the notion of normalized information distance (NID) [7] into a kernel distance suitable for use with a Support Vector Machine classifier, and demonstrate its use for an...
In this paper, we propose a machine learning algorithm for shallow semantic parsing, extending the work of Gildea and Jurafsky (2002), Surdeanu et al. (2003) and others. Our algor...

The choice of the kernel function is crucial to most applications of support vector machines. In this paper, however, we show that in the case of text classification, term-frequenc...
