There has been an explosion of hyperlinked data in many domains, e.g., the biological Web. Expressive query languages and effective ranking techniques are required to convert this...
How can we automatically spot all outstanding observations in a data set? This question arises in a large variety of applications, e.g. in economy, biology and medicine. Existing ...
Max-margin Markov networks (M3 N) have shown great promise in structured prediction and relational learning. Due to the KKT conditions, the M3 N enjoys dual sparsity. However, the...
Data mining techniques have become central to many applications. Most of those applications rely on so called supervised learning algorithms, which learn from given examples in th...
