Naive Bayesian Classifiers for Ranking
It is well-known that naive Bayes performs surprisingly well in classification, but its probability estimation is poor. In many applications, however, a ranking based on class prob...

Efficient Hyperkernel Learning Using Second-Order Cone Programming
The kernel function plays a central role in kernel methods. Most existing methods can only adapt the kernel parameters or the kernel matrix based on empirical data. Recently, Ong e...
