Abstract. We present a survey of recent results concerning the theoretical and empirical performance of algorithms for learning regularized least-squares classifiers. The behavior ...
Evaluating rankers using implicit feedback, such as clicks on documents in a result list, is an increasingly popular alternative to traditional evaluation methods based on explici...
: Optimizers in modern DBMSs utilize a cost model to choose an efficient query execution plan (QEP) among all possible ones for a given query. The accuracy of the cost estimates de...
