We consider the supervised learning of a binary classifier from noisy observations. We use smooth boosting to linearly combine abstaining hypotheses, each of which maps a subcube...
Sequence data are abundant in application areas such as computational biology, environmental sciences, and telecommunications. Many real-life sequences have a strong segmental str...
Active machine learning algorithms are used when large numbers of unlabeled examples are available and getting labels for them is costly (e.g. requiring consulting a human expert)...
Semi-supervised clustering uses a small amount of supervised data to aid unsupervised learning. One typical approach specifies a limited number of must-link and cannotlink constra...
In this study, we propose a novel evolutionary algorithm-based clustering method, named density-sensitive evolutionary clustering (DSEC). In DSEC, each individual is a sequence of ...
