Random Forests were introduced by Breiman for feature (variable) selection and improved predictions for decision tree models. The resulting model is often superior to AdaBoost and ...

Quantization of continuous variables is important in data analysis, especially for some model classes such as Bayesian networks and decision trees, which use discrete variables. Of...
We present a new approach to integrated motion estimation and segmentation by combining methods from discrete and continuous optimization. The velocity of each of a set of regions ...
A two component parametric mixture is proposed to model survival after an invasive treatment, when patients may experience different hazards regimes: a risk of early mortality dir...
Abstract--Feature selection is an important challenge in machine learning. Unfortunately, most methods for automating feature selection are designed for supervised learning tasks a...
