Magnification control for batch neural gas
Neural gas (NG) constitutes a very robust clustering algorithm which can be derived as stochastic gradient descent from a cost function closely connected to the quantization error...

Optimizing Classifier Performance via an Approximation to the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney Statistic
When the goal is to achieve the best correct classification rate, cross entropy and mean squared error are typical cost functions used to optimize classifier performance. However,...

Averaging Expert Predictions
We consider algorithms for combining advice from a set of experts. In each trial, the algorithm receives the predictions of the experts and produces its own prediction. A loss func...
