Modelling Lexical Redundancy for Machine Translation
Certain distinctions made in the lexicon of one language may be redundant when translating into another language. We quantify redundancy among source types by the similarity of th...

Catching Up Faster in Bayesian Model Selection and Model Averaging
Bayesian model averaging, model selection and their approximations such as BIC are generally statistically consistent, but sometimes achieve slower rates of convergence than other...

Active Learning with Model Selection in Linear Regression
Optimally designing the location of training input points (active learning) and choosing the best model (model selection) are two important components of supervised learning and h...

Managing Domain Knowledge and Multiple Models with Boosting
We present MBoost, a novel extension to AdaBoost that extends boosting to use multiple weak learners explicitly, and provides robustness to learning models that overfit or are po...

Model Selection for a Class of Spatio-temporal Models for Areal Data
Abstract. We present a method to perform model selection based on predictive density in a class of spatio-temporal dynamic generalized linear models for areal data. These models as...

A Permutation Approach to Validation
We give a permutation approach to validation (estimation of out-sample error). One typical use of validation is model selection. We establish the legitimacy of the proposed permut...

Efficient Algorithms for Minimizing Cross Validation Error
Model selection is important in many areas of supervised learning. Given a dataset and a set of models for predicting with that dataset, we must choose the model which is expected...

Support Vector Regression Using Mahalanobis Kernels
Abstract. In our previous work we have shown that Mahalanobis kernels are useful for support vector classifiers both from generalization ability and model selection speed. In this ...

Graph-Based Model-Selection Framework for Large Ensembles
The intuition behind ensembles is that different prediciton models compensate each other’s errors if one combines them in an appropriate way. In case of large ensembles a lot of...

Model selection in genetic programming
Abstract. We discuss the problem of model selection in Genetic Programming using the framework provided by Statistical Learning Theory, i.e. Vapnik-Chervonenkis theory (VC). We pre...
