In this paper we examine ensemble methods for regression that leverage or "boost" base regressors by iteratively calling them on modified samples. The most successful lev...
Matching Pursuit algorithms learn a function that is a weighted sum of basis functions, by sequentially appending functions to an initially empty basis, to approximate a target fu...
We consider the problem of classification of multiple observations of the same object, possibly under different transformations. We view this problem as a special case of semi-sup...
We address the feature selection problem for hidden Markov models (HMMs) in sequence classification. Temporal correlation in sequences often causes difficulty in applying featur...

Abstract. Feature subset selection is an important subject when training classifiers in Machine Learning (ML) problems. Too many input features in a ML problem may lead to the so-...
