Background: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) based on single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) revolutionized our perception of the genetic regulation of complex traits and di...
The Support Vector Machine (SVM) of Vapnik [9] has become widely established as one of the leading approaches to pattern recognition and machine learning. It expresses predictions...
Graphical models are usually learned without regard to the cost of doing inference with them. As a result, even if a good model is learned, it may perform poorly at prediction, be...
