Despite the widespread use of BM25, there have been few studies examining its effectiveness on a document description over single and multiple field combinations. We determine t...
Explicit instruction in a problem-solving strategy accelerated learning not only in the domain where it was taught but also in a second domain where it was not taught. We present d...
How to assess the performance of machine learning algorithms is a problem of increasing interest and urgency as the data mining application of myriad algorithms grows. The standard...
A central issue in logical concept induction is the prospect of inconsistency. This problem may arise due to noise in the training data, or because the target concept does not fit...
Abstract. Switching linear dynamic systems (SLDS) attempt to describe a complex nonlinear dynamic system with a succession of linear models indexed by a switching variable. Unfortu...
