We propose a modified discrete HMM that includes a feature weighting discrimination component. We assume that the feature space is partitioned into subspaces and that the relevan...
— Metaheuristics such as Estimation of Distribution Algorithms and the Cross-Entropy method use probabilistic modelling and inference to generate candidate solutions in optimizat...

Probabilistic latent semantic indexing (PLSI) represents documents of a collection as mixture proportions of latent topics, which are learned from the collection by an expectation...

We address a new learning problem where the goal is to build a predictive model that minimizes prediction time (the time taken to make a prediction) subject to a constraint on mod...

Many real life situations, like the financial market, auctions and resources competitions, can be modeled as Minority Games. In minority games, players choose to join one of the ...
