Web Page Classification*
This chapter describes systems that automatically classify web pages into meaningful categories. It first defines two types of web page... -
INTRODUCTION
Over the last decade, a series of publications has brought and established new research areas related to music, and intensified the research verging... -
Cluster Identification Using Maximum Configuration Entropy
Clustering is an important task in data mining and machine learning. In this paper, a normalized graph sampling algorithm for clustering that... -
A Probabilistic Logic-based Framework for Characterizing Knowledge Discovery in Databases
In order to further improve the KDD process in terms of both the degree of automation achieved and types of knowledge discovered, we argue that a... -
An Algorithm to Calculate the Expected Value of an Ongoing User Session
The fiercely competitive web-based electronic commerce environment has made necessary the application of intelligent methods to gather and analyze... -
Fast Color Texture-Based Object Detection in Images: Application to License Plate Localization
The current chapter presents a color texture-based method for object detection in images. A support vector machine (SVM) is used to classify each... -
Application of Support Vector Machines in Inverse Problems in Ocean Color Remote Sensing
Neural networks are widely used as transfer functions in inverse problems in remote sensing. However, this method still suffers from some problems... -
Multiple Model Estimation for Nonlinear Classification
This chapter describes a new method for nonlinear classification using a collection of several simple (linear) classifiers. The approach is based on... -
Active Support Vector Learning with Statistical Queries
The article describes an active learning strategy to solve the large quadratic programming (QP) problem of support vector machine (SVM) design in... -
Sensation and Perception Modules
In any kind of creature, both the mechanisms of sensation and perception are indispensable for continuous living, e.g. to find edible plants/fruits... -
Modelling Abstract Notions Relevant to the Mind and the Associated Modules
This chapter is devoted to the remaining four modules within the AMS, i.e. 1) attention, 2) emotion, 3) intention, and 4) intuition module, and their... -
Introduction
Genetic algorithms (GAs) are powerful search techniques based on principles of evolution. They are now widely applied to solve problems in many... -
Clustering Via Decision Tree Construction
Clustering is an exploratory data analysis task. It aims to find the intrinsic structure of data by organizing data objects into similarity groups or... -
Sequential Pattern Mining by Pattern-Growth: Principles and Extensions*
Sequential pattern mining is an important data mining problem with broad applications. However, it is also a challenging problem since the mining may... -
PERCEPTUAL BASES OF HEARING AND MUSIC PERCEPTION
The human auditory system pertains to the entire peripheral auditory mechanism. Classically, the peripheral auditory system has been divided into... -
INTELLIGENT MUSICAL INSTRUMENT SOUND CLASSIFICATION
This chapter is devoted to intelligent classification of the sound of musical instruments. Although it is possible, and in some applications... -
On Statistical Independence in a Contingency Table
This paper gives a proof showing that statistical independence in a contingency table is a special type of linear independence, where the rank of a... -
Identification of Critical Values in Latent Semantic Indexing
In this chapter we analyze the values used by Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI) for information retrieval. By manipulating the values in the Singular... -
First-Order Logic Based Formalism for Temporal Data Mining*
In this article we define a formalism for a methodology that has as purpose the discovery of knowledge, represented in the form of general Horn... -
Justification and Hypothesis Selection in Data Mining
Data mining is an instance of the inductive methodology. Many philosophical considerations for induction can also be carried out for data mining. In...
