The promise of unsupervised learning methods lies in their potential to use vast amounts of unlabeled data to learn complex, highly nonlinear models with millions of free paramete...
This paper aims to conduct a study on the listwise approach to learning to rank. The listwise approach learns a ranking function by taking individual lists as instances and minimi...
Program specifications are important in many phases of the software development process, but they are often omitted or incomplete. An important class of specifications takes the f...
Prior research in software environments focused on three important problems-- tool integration, artifact management, and process guidance. The context for that research, and hence...
The ability to flexibly compose confidence computation with the operations of relational algebra is an important feature of probabilistic database query languages. Computing confi...
