Coupled Bayesian Sets Algorithm for Semi-supervised Learning and Information Extraction [chapter]

Saurabh Verma, Estevam R. Hruschka
2012 Lecture Notes in Computer Science  
We believe that this problem can be overcome by simultaneously learning independent classifiers in a new approach named Coupled Bayesian Sets algorithm, based on Bayesian Sets, for many different categories  ...  Experimental results show that simultaneously learning a coupled collection of classifiers for random 11 categories resulted in much more accurate extractions than training classifiers through original  ...  Heller for making available their Bayesian set code for comparison.

A Scene Image is Nonmutually Exclusive—A Fuzzy Qualitative Scene Understanding

Chern Hong Lim, Anhar Risnumawan, Chee Seng Chan
2014 IEEE transactions on fuzzy systems  
Evaluations in term of qualitative and quantitative using large numbers and challenging public scene datasets have shown the effectiveness of our proposed method in modeling the non-mutually exclusive  ...  In this paper, we show that scene images are non-mutually exclusive, and propose the Fuzzy Qualitative Rank Classifier (FQRC) to tackle the aforementioned problems.  ...  The first term is the error bound because of the mutually exclusive data and the second term is due to the non-mutually exclusive data.  ...

Experiences on Grid Shared Data Programming

Dacian Tudor, Vladimir Cretu
2008 2008 International Conference on Complex, Intelligent and Software Intensive Systems  
There is little support for other paradigms such as shared data or associative programming.  ...  We start by assessing the landscape of grid programming solutions with a focus on shared data concepts.  ...  The same is true for the mutual exclusion algorithms which have been evaluated through experiments on fast interconnected machines (Sopena et al., 2007) .  ...

Meta-Learning without Memorization [article]

Mingzhang Yin, George Tucker, Mingyuan Zhou, Sergey Levine, Chelsea Finn
2020 arXiv   pre-print
However, most meta-learning algorithms implicitly require that the meta-training tasks be mutually-exclusive, such that no single model can solve all of the tasks at once.  ...  By doing so, our algorithm can successfully use data from non-mutually-exclusive tasks to efficiently adapt to novel tasks.  ...  Alemi, Kevin Murphy, Luke Metz, Abhishek Kumar and the anonymous reviewers for helpful discussions and feedback.

Decomposition methodology for classification tasks: a meta decomposer framework

Lior Rokach
2006 Pattern Analysis and Applications  
The idea of decomposition methodology for classification tasks is to break down a complex classification task into several simpler and more manageable sub-tasks that are solvable by using existing induction  ...  The experimental study validates the effectiveness of the proposed meta-decomposer on a set of benchmark datasets.  ...  This framework nests many algorithms, two of which are tested empirically over a set of benchmark datasets.  ...

Information theoretic approaches for inference of biological networks from continuous-valued data

David M. Budden, Edmund J. Crampin
2016 BMC Systems Biology  
Our approach overcomes both of these limitations, as demonstrated by a substantial improvement in empirical performance for a set of 160 GRNs of varying size and topology.  ...  However, despite the theoretical and empirical advantages of these new measures, they do not circumvent the fundamental limitation of indeterminacy exhibited across this class of biological networks.  ...  Both of these algorithms correct for bias and have been empirically demonstrated as robust to the selection of K [33] .  ...

Quantifying the morphosyntactic content of Brown Clusters

Manuel Ciosici, Leon Derczynski, Ira Assent
2019 Proceedings of the 2019 Conference of the North  
We show that increases in Average Mutual Information, the clustering algorithms' optimization goal, are highly correlated with improvements in encoding of morphosyntactic information.  ...  Our results provide empirical evidence that downstream NLP systems addressing tasks dependent on morphosyntactic information can benefit from word cluster features.  ...  Both are greedy algorithms that optimize for high Average Mutual Information (AMI).  ...
