Background: A critical step in processing oligonucleotide microarray data is combining the information in multiple probes to produce a single number that best captures the express...
The need to merge multiple sources of uncertain information is an important issue in many application areas, especially when there is potential for contradictions between sources. ...
The performance of many supervised and unsupervised learning algorithms is very sensitive to the choice of an appropriate distance metric. Previous work in metric learning and ada...
Predicting when a person might be frustrated can provide an intelligent system with important information about when to initiate interaction. For example, an automated Learning Co...
