A cost-sensitive extension of boosting, denoted as asymmetric boosting, is presented. Unlike previous proposals, the new algorithm is derived from sound decision-theoretic princip...
Recently, instead of selecting a single kernel, multiple kernel learning (MKL) has been proposed which uses a convex combination of kernels, where the weight of each kernel is opt...
We present a simple statistical model of molecular function evolution to predict protein function. The model description encodes general knowledge of how molecular function evolve...

We present a unified model of what was traditionally viewed as two separate tasks: data association and intensity tracking of multiple topics over time. In the data association pa...
Feature selection is often applied to highdimensional data prior to classification learning. Using the same training dataset in both selection and learning can result in socalled ...
