Theoretical and experimental analyses of bagging indicate that it is primarily a variance reduction technique. This suggests that bagging should be applied to learning algorithms ...
Platt’s probabilistic outputs for Support Vector Machines (Platt, 2000) has been popular for applications that require posterior class probabilities. In this note, we propose an ...
Abstract. Support Vector Machines (SVM) have been applied successfully in a wide variety of fields in the last decade. The SVM problem is formulated as a convex objective function...
We describe a simple active learning heuristic which greatly enhances the generalization behavior of support vector machines (SVMs) on several practical document classification ta...
We examine the so-called rigorous support vector machine (RSVM) approach proposed by Vapnik (1998). The formulation of RSVM is derived by explicitly implementing the structural ris...
