چکیده

The notion of exploiting data dependent hypothesis spaces is an exciting new direction in machine learning with strong theoretical foundations[66]. A very practical motivation for these techniques is that they allow us to exploit unlabeled data in new ways [2]. In this work we investigate a particular technique for combining “native” features with features derived from a similarity function. We also describe a novel technique for using unlabeled data to define a similarity function.

Link Prediction using Network Embedding based on Global Similarity

Background: The link prediction issue is one of the most widely used problems in complex network analysis. Link prediction requires knowing the background of previous link connections and combining them with available information. The link prediction local approaches with node structure objectives are fast in case of speed but are not accurate enough. On the other hand, the global link predicti...

Composite Kernel Optimization in Semi-Supervised Metric

Machine-learning solutions to classification, clustering and matching problems critically depend on the adopted metric, which in the past was selected heuristically. In the last decade, it has been demonstrated that an appropriate metric can be learnt from data, resulting in superior performance as compared with traditional metrics. This has recently stimulated a considerable interest in the to...

Hybrid Recommender System Based on Variance Item Rating

K-nearest neighbors (KNN) based recommender systems (KRS) are among the most successful recent available recommender systems. These methods involve in predicting the rating of an item based on the mean of ratings given to similar items, with the similarity defined by considering the mean rating given to each item as its feature. This paper presents a KRS developed by combining the following app...

IBEnt: Chemical Entity Mentions in Patents using ChEBI

This article presents our approach to the CEMP task of BioCreative V.5, which consisted in using our system, IBEnt, to identify chemical entity mentions in patents through machine learning and semantic similarity techniques. The features used combine the results of a CRF classifier, two lexical matching methods (FiGO and MER) and semantic similarity measures on ChEBI ontology. We also tested th...
