The repetitive behavior of a device or system can be described in two ways: a detailed description of one iteration of the behavior, or a summary description of the behavior over ...
This paper describes an application of recently developed qualitative reasoning techniques to complex, socio{economic allocation problems. We explain why we believe traditional op...
“Energy” models for continuous domains can be applied to many problems, but often suffer from high computational expense in training, due to the need to repeatedly minimize t...
We present SpeedBoost, a natural extension of functional gradient descent, for learning anytime predictors, which automatically trade computation time for predictive accuracy by s...
Abstract. We consider a new discriminative learning approach to sequence labeling based on the statistical concept of the Z-score. Given a training set of pairs of hidden-observed ...
