In this paper, a dynamic approach to deductive query evaluation is presented which combines the e ects of di erent SIP strategies used for the magic set rewriting technique. Given...
For effective retrieval of visual information, statistical learning plays a pivotal role. Statistical learning in such a context faces at least two major mathematical challenges: ...
We address well-studied problems concerning the learnability of parities and halfspaces in the presence of classification noise. Learning of parities under the uniform distributi...
The goal of active learning is to determine the locations of training input points so that the generalization error is minimized. We discuss the problem of active learning in line...
