Learning ranking (or preference) functions has been a major issue in the machine learning community and has produced many applications in information retrieval. SVMs (Support Vect...
We describe a new face detection algorithm based on a hierarchy of support vector classifiers (SVMs) designed for efficient computation. The hierarchy serves as a platform for a c...
We present an efficient feature selection algorithm for computer aided detection (CAD) computed tomographic (CT) colonography. The algorithm 1) determines an appropriate piecewise...

There has been an explosion of hyperlinked data in many domains, e.g., the biological Web. Expressive query languages and effective ranking techniques are required to convert this...
Background: Generally speaking, different classifiers tend to work well for certain types of data and conversely, it is usually not known a priori which algorithm will be optimal ...
