We compare the practical performance of several recently proposed algorithms for active learning in the online classification setting. We consider two active learning algorithms (...
The problem of transfer learning, where information gained in one learning task is used to improve performance in another related task, is an important new area of research. While...
Radiologists disagree with each other over the characteristics and features of what constitutes a normal mammogram and the terminology to use in the associated radiology report. R...

The kernel function plays a central role in kernel methods. Most existing methods can only adapt the kernel parameters or the kernel matrix based on empirical data. Recently, Ong e...
Assume that we are trying to build a visual recognizer for a particular class of objects--chairs, for example--using existing induction methods. Assume the assistance of a human t...
