We consider the problem of learning and verifying hidden graphs and their properties given query access to the graphs. We analyze various queries (edge detection, edge counting, sh...
RELIEF is considered one of the most successful algorithms for assessing the quality of features. In this paper, we propose a set of new feature weighting algorithms that perform s...
We propose a novel variant of the conjugate gradient algorithm, Kernel Conjugate Gradient (KCG), designed to speed up learning for kernel machines with differentiable loss functio...
Iterative learning algorithms that approximate the solution of support vector machines (SVMs) have two potential advantages. First, they allow for online and active learning. Seco...
Active learning methods seek to reduce the number of labeled examples needed to train an effective classifier, and have natural appeal in spam filtering applications where trustwo...
