We study the problem of learning a classification task in which only a dissimilarity function of the objects is accessible. That is, data are not represented by feature vectors bu...
In this paper, we discuss a technique for handling multi-class problems with binary classifiers, namely to learn one classifier for each pair of classes. Although this idea is kno...
We report on three distinct experiments that provide new valuable insights into learning algorithms and datasets. We first describe two effective meta-features that significantly ...
Confidence-weighted (CW) learning [6], an online learning method for linear classifiers, maintains a Gaussian distributions over weight vectors, with a covariance matrix that repr...
We present MI-CRF, a conditional random field (CRF) model for multiple instance learning (MIL). MI-CRF models bags as nodes in a CRF with instances as their states. It combines di...
