Abstract. We propose a new string kernel based on variable-lengthdon't-care patterns (VLDC patterns). A VLDC pattern is an element of ({}) , where is an alphabet and is the ...
This paper presents a review of methodology for semi-supervised modeling with kernel methods, when the manifold assumption is guaranteed to be satisfied. It concerns environmental ...
Automated Visual Inspection (AVI) is an essential part in the manufacturing process of Integrated Circuit (IC) packages. Contamination a common defect type found in IC packages ap...
We consider the model selection problem for support vector machines applied to binary classification. As the data generating process is unknown, we have to rely on heuristics as mo...
We present an algorithm based on convex optimization for constructing kernels for semi-supervised learning. The kernel matrices are derived from the spectral decomposition of grap...
