We propose a "soft greedy" learning algorithm for building small conjunctions of simple threshold functions, called rays, defined on single real-valued attributes. We al...
We present a new algorithm for learning a convex set in n-dimensional space given labeled examples drawn from any Gaussian distribution. The complexity of the algorithm is bounded ...
Classifiers are traditionally learned using sets of positive and negative training examples. However, often a classifier is required, but for training only an incomplete set of pos...
We present an algorithm for color classification with explicit illuminant estimation and compensation. A Gaussian classifier is trained with color samples from just one training im...
This paper describes a deployed educational technology application: the CriterionSM Online Essay Evaluation Service, a web-based system that provides automated scoring and evaluat...
