Abstract. Robots need to ground their external vocabulary and internal symbols in observations of the world. In recent works, this problem has been approached through combinations ...
It is well-known that naive Bayes performs surprisingly well in classification, but its probability estimation is poor. In many applications, however, a ranking based on class prob...
Significant changes in the instance distribution or associated cost function of a learning problem require one to reoptimize a previously-learned classifier to work under new cond...

Theoretically well-founded, Support Vector Machines (SVM)are well-knownto be suited for efficiently solving classification problems. Althoughimprovedgeneralization is the maingoal...
In this paper, we investigate how an accurate question classifier contributes to a question answering system. We first present a Maximum Entropy (ME) based question classifier whi...
