Recommender systems perform much better on users for which they have more information. This gives rise to a problem of satisfying users new to a system. The problem is even more a...
Recently Vapnik et al. [11, 12, 13] introduced a new learning model, called Learning Using Privileged Information (LUPI). In this model, along with standard training data, the tea...
Graph clustering (also called graph partitioning) -- clustering the nodes of a graph -- is an important problem in diverse data mining applications. Traditional approaches involve...
Clustering is ill-defined. Unlike supervised learning where labels lead to crisp performance criteria such as accuracy and squared error, clustering quality depends on how the cl...
