— Area Under the ROC Curve (AUC) is often used to evaluate ranking performance in binary classification problems. Several researchers have approached AUC optimization by approxi...
In this paper we address the problem of classifying images, by exploiting global features that describe color and illumination properties, and by using the statistical learning pa...
Support Vector Machines (SVMs) have been very successful in text classification. However, the intrinsic geometric structure of text data has been ignored by standard kernels commo...
Abstract. The protein family classification problem, which consists of determining the family memberships of given unknown protein sequences, is very important for a biologist for ...
Linear support vector machines (SVM) are useful for classifying large-scale sparse data. Problems with sparse features are common in applications such as document classification a...
