Weintroduce a significant improvementfor a relatively newmachine learning methodcalled Transformation-Based Learning. By applying a MonteCarlo strategy to randomly sample from the...
Abstract—We present the query-by-description (QBD) component of “Kandem,” a time-aware music retrieval system. The QBD system we describe learns a relation between descriptiv...
In large content-based image database applications, e cient information retrieval depends heavily on good indexing structures of the extracted features. While indexing techniques f...
Meta-Learning has been used to select algorithms based on the features of the problems being tackled. Each training example in this context, i.e. each meta-example, stores the feat...
- As an alternative to traditional Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs), Population-Based Incremental Learning (PBIL) maintains a probabilistic model of the best individual(s). Originally...
