Random forests are one of the best performing methods for constructing ensembles. They derive their strength from two aspects: using random subsamples of the training data (as in b...
Many academic journals ask their authors to provide a list of about five to fifteen keywords, to appear on the first page of each article. Since these key words are often phrases ...
In this paper, we introduce weights into Pawlak rough set model to balance the class distribution of a data set and develop a weighted rough set based method to deal with the clas...
Tree-structured probabilistic models admit simple, fast inference. However, they are not well suited to phenomena such as occlusion, where multiple components of an object may dis...
Before applying learning algorithms to datasets, practitioners often globally discretize any numeric attributes. If the algorithm cannot handle numeric attributes directly, prior ...
