Success of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) largely depends on whether the deployed network can provide desired area coverage with acceptable network lifetime. This paper seeks to a...
Given a unlabelled set of points X ∈ RN belonging to k groups, we propose a method to identify cluster assignments that provides maximum separating margin among the clusters. We...
Many learning algorithms rely on the curvature (in particular, strong convexity) of regularized objective functions to provide good theoretical performance guarantees. In practice...
Hierarchical topic taxonomies have proliferated on the World Wide Web [5, 18], and exploiting the output space decompositions they induce in automated classification systems is an...
This paper presents an updated version of the adaptive learning particle swarm optimizer (ALPSO) [6], we call it ALPSO-II. In order to improve the performance of ALPSO on multi-mod...
