Robust Classification Under Sample Selection Bias
In many important machine learning applications, the source distribution used to estimate a probabilistic classifier differs from the target distribution on which the classifier will be used to make predictions. Due to its asymptotic properties, sample reweighted empirical loss minimization is a commonly employed technique to deal with this difference. However, given finite amounts of labeled s...
متن کاملVariable Selection Bias in Classification Trees Based on Imprecise Probabilities
Classification trees are a popular statistical tool with multiple applications. Recent advancements of traditional classification trees, such as the approach of classification trees based on imprecise probabilities by Abellán and Moral (2005), effectively address their tendency to overfitting. However, another flaw inherent in traditional classification trees is not eliminated by the imprecise ...
متن کاملTransfer Learning by Sample Selection Bias Correction and Its Application in Communication Specific Emitter Identification
—In many traditional machine learning algorithms, a major assumption is that the training samples and the test samples have the same distribution. However, this assumption does not hold in many real applications. In recent years, transfer learning has attracted a significant amount of attention to solve this problem. In this paper, a novel transfer learning method based on clustering analysis ...
متن کاملA Machine Learning Approach to Cepheid Variable Star Classification Using Data Alignment and Maximum Likelihood
Our study centers on the classification of two subtypes of Cepheid variable stars. Such classification is relatively easy to obtain for nearby galaxies, but as we incorporate new galaxies, the cost of labeling stars calls for some form of model adaptation. Adapting a predictive model to differentiate Cepheids across galaxies is difficult because of the sample bias problem in star distribution (...
متن کاملSample Selection Bias Correction Theory
This paper presents a theoretical analysis of sample selection bias correction. The sample bias correction technique commonly used in machine learning consists of reweighting the cost of an error on each training point of a biased sample to more closely reflect the unbiased distribution. This relies on weights derived by various estimation techniques based on finite samples. We analyze the effe...
