Multi-view algorithms reduce the amount of required training data by partitioning the domain features into separate subsets or views that are sufficient to learn the target concep...
We develop an intuitive geometric interpretation of the standard support vector machine (SVM) for classification of both linearly separable and inseparable data and provide a rigo...
In this paper, we try to leverage a large-scale and multilingual knowledge base, Wikipedia, to help effectively analyze and organize Web information written in different languages...
