Abstract. We study predicate selection functions (also known as splitting rules) for structural decision trees and propose two improvements to existing schemes. The first is in cl...
Abstract. Attribute value taxonomies (AVTs) have been used to perform AVT-guided decision tree learning on partially or totally missing data. In many cases, user-supplied AVTs are ...

This paper introduces a system for categorizing unknown words. The system is based on a multicomponent architecture where each component is responsible for identifying one class o...
A Direct Sum Theorem holds in a model of computation, when for every problem solving some k input instances together is k times as expensive as solving one. We show that Direct Su...
