Similarity search, namely, finding approximate nearest neighborhoods, is the core of many large scale machine learning or vision applications. Recently, many research results dem...
Kernel methods have been applied successfully in many data mining tasks. Subspace kernel learning was recently proposed to discover an effective low-dimensional subspace of a kern...

The linear model with sparsity-favouring prior on the coefficients has important applications in many different domains. In machine learning, most methods to date search for maxim...
This paper focuses on the study of the behavior of a genetic algorithm based classifier system, the Adapted Pittsburgh Classifier System (A.P.C.S), on maze type environments con...
