The Nature of Statistical Learning Theory

by Vladimir N. Vapnik , 1999
"... Statistical learning theory was introduced in the late 1960’s. Until the 1990’s it was a purely theoretical analysis of the problem of function estimation from a given collection of data. In the middle of the 1990’s new types of learning algorithms (called support vector machines) based on the deve ..."

Maximum likelihood from incomplete data via the EM algorithm

by A. P. Dempster, N. M. Laird, D. B. Rubin - JOURNAL OF THE ROYAL STATISTICAL SOCIETY, SERIES B , 1977
"... A broadly applicable algorithm for computing maximum likelihood estimates from incomplete data is presented at various levels of generality. Theory showing the monotone behaviour of the likelihood and convergence of the algorithm is derived. Many examples are sketched, including missing value situat ..."

An ecological perspective on health promotion programs

by Kenneth R. Mcleroy, Daniel Bibeau Phd, Allan Steckler Drph, Karen Glanz, Kenneth R. Mcleroy, Daniel Bibeau, Department Public Health - Health Education Quarterly , 1988
"... During the past 20 years there has been a dramatic increase in societal interest in preventing disability and death in the United States by changing individual behaviors linked to the risk of contracting chronic diseases. This renewed interest in health pro-motion and disease prevention has not been ..."

not been without its critics. Some critics have accused proponents of life-style interventions of promoting a victim-blaming ideology by neglecting the importance of social influences on health and disease. This article proposes an ecological model for health promotion which focuses atten-tion on both

Language Support for Lightweight Transactions

by Tim Harris, Keir Fraser , 2003
"... Concurrent programming is notoriously di#cult. Current abstractions are intricate and make it hard to design computer systems that are reliable and scalable. We argue that these problems can be addressed by moving to a declarative style of concurrency control in which programmers directly indicate t ..."

A tutorial on support vector regression

by Alex J. Smola, Bernhard Schölkopf , 2004
"... In this tutorial we give an overview of the basic ideas underlying Support Vector (SV) machines for function estimation. Furthermore, we include a summary of currently used algorithms for training SV machines, covering both the quadratic (or convex) programming part and advanced methods for dealing ..."

An Overview of the C++ Programming Language

by Bjarne Stroustrup , 1999
"... This overview of C++ presents the key design, programming, and language-technical concepts using examples to give the reader a feel for the language. C++ is a general-purpose programming language with a bias towards systems programming that supports efficient low-level computation, data abstraction, ..."

Program Analysis and Specialization for the C Programming Language

by Lars Ole Andersen , 1994
"... Software engineers are faced with a dilemma. They want to write general and wellstructured programs that are flexible and easy to maintain. On the other hand, generality has a price: efficiency. A specialized program solving a particular problem is often significantly faster than a general program. ..."

with efficiency. This thesis presents an automatic partial evaluator for the Ansi C programming language. The content of this thesis is analysis and transformation of C programs. We develop several analyses that support the transformation of a program into its generating extension. A generating extension is a

A theory of type polymorphism in programming

by Robin Milner - Journal of Computer and System Sciences , 1978
"... The aim of this work is largely a practical one. A widely employed style of programming, particularly in structure-processing languages which impose no discipline of types, entails defining procedures which work well on objects of a wide variety. We present a formal type discipline for such polymorp ..."

Learning Stochastic Logic Programs

by Stephen Muggleton , 2000
"... Stochastic Logic Programs (SLPs) have been shown to be a generalisation of Hidden Markov Models (HMMs), stochastic context-free grammars, and directed Bayes' nets. A stochastic logic program consists of a set of labelled clauses p:C where p is in the interval [0,1] and C is a first-order r ..."

-order range-restricted definite clause. This paper summarises the syntax, distributional semantics and proof techniques for SLPs and then discusses how a standard Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) system, Progol, has been modied to support learning of SLPs. The resulting system 1) nds an SLP with uniform

Estimating the Support of a High-Dimensional Distribution

by Bernhard Schölkopf, John C. Platt, John Shawe-taylor, Alex J. Smola, Robert C. Williamson , 1999
"... Suppose you are given some dataset drawn from an underlying probability distribution P and you want to estimate a "simple" subset S of input space such that the probability that a test point drawn from P lies outside of S is bounded by some a priori specified between 0 and 1. We propo ..."
Abstract - Cited by 783 (29 self) - Add to MetaCart
propose a method to approach this problem by trying to estimate a function f which is positive on S and negative on the complement. The functional form of f is given by a kernel expansion in terms of a potentially small subset of the training data; it is regularized by controlling the length
