The induction of knowledge from a data set relies in the execution of multiple data mining actions: to apply filters to clean and select the data, to train different algorithms (...
The function of an unknown biological sequence can often be accurately inferred by identifying sequences homologous to the original sequence. Given a query set of known homologs, ...
Active learning is well-suited to many problems in natural language processing, where unlabeled data may be abundant but annotation is slow and expensive. This paper aims to shed ...
A new form of optimality for comparison based static dictionaries is introduced. This type of optimality, keyindependent optimality, is motivated by applications that assign key v...
Bidding for multiple items or bundles on online auctions raises challenging problems. We assume that an agent has a valuation function that returns its valuation for an arbitrary ...
