Greedy algorithms are simple, but their relative power is not well understood. The priority framework [5] captures a key notion of “greediness” in the sense that it processes (...
Crucial to the more widespread use of evolutionary computation techniques is the ability to scale up to handle complex problems. In the field of genetic programming, a number of d...
Deciding what to sense is a crucial task, made harder by dependencies and by a nonadditive utility function. We develop approximation algorithms for selecting an optimal set of me...
State-of-the-art speaker verification systems consists of a number of complementary subsystems whose outputs are fused, to arrive at more accurate and reliable verification deci...
A relevance filter is proposed which removes features based on the mutual information between class labels and features. It is proven that both feature independence and class condi...
