We investigate the use of certain data-dependent estimates of the complexity of a function class, called Rademacher and Gaussian complexities. In a decision theoretic setting, we ...
Abstract. We investigate the application of classification techniques to the problem of information extraction (IE). In particular we use support vector machines and several differ...
In this paper, we provide a study on the use of tree kernels to encode syntactic parsing information in natural language learning. In particular, we propose a new convolution kerne...
We perform a systematic evaluation of feature selection (FS) methods for support vector machines (SVMs) using simulated high-dimensional data (up to 5000 dimensions). Several findi...
When performing discussion search it might be desirable to consider non-topical measures like the number of positive and negative replies to a posting, for instance as one possibl...
