Statistical machine learning methods are employed to train a Named Entity Recognizer from annotated data. Methods like Maximum Entropy and Conditional Random Fields make use of fe...
Feature selection is a problem of choosing a subset of relevant features. Researchers have been searching for optimal feature selection methods. `Branch and Bound' and Focus a...
"Learning with side-information" is attracting more and more attention in machine learning problems. In this paper, we propose a general iterative framework for relevant...
We describe the g-factor which relates probability distributions on image features to distributions on the images themselves. The g-factor depends only on our choice of features a...
