An experimental comparison of three methods for constructing ensembles of decision trees
- Bagging, boosting, and randomization. Machine Learning
, 2000
"... Abstract. Bagging and boosting are methods that generate a diverse ensemble of classifiers by manipulating the training data given to a “base ” learning algorithm. Breiman has pointed out that they rely for their effectiveness on the instability of the base learning algorithm. An alternative approac ..."

approach to generating an ensemble is to randomize the internal decisions made by the base algorithm. This general approach has been studied previously by Ali and Pazzani and by Dietterich and Kong. This paper compares the effectiveness of randomization, bagging, and boosting for improving the performance
A Compositional Approach to Performance Modelling
, 1996
"... Performance modelling is concerned with the capture and analysis of the dynamic behaviour of computer and communication systems. The size and complexity of many modern systems result in large, complex models. A compositional approach decomposes the system into subsystems that are smaller and more ea ..."

Marching cubes: A high resolution 3D surface construction algorithm
- COMPUTER GRAPHICS
, 1987
"... We present a new algorithm, called marching cubes, that creates triangle models of constant density surfaces from 3D medical data. Using a divide-and-conquer approach to generate inter-slice connectivity, we create a case table that defines triangle topology. The algorithm processes the 3D medical d ..."

A Maximum Entropy approach to Natural Language Processing
- COMPUTATIONAL LINGUISTICS
, 1996
"... The concept of maximum entropy can be traced back along multiple threads to Biblical times. Only recently, however, have computers become powerful enough to permit the widescale application of this concept to real world problems in statistical estimation and pattern recognition. In this paper we des ..."

describe a method for statistical modeling based on maximum entropy. We present a maximum-likelihood approach for automatically constructing maximum entropy models and describe how to implement this approach efficiently, using as examples several problems in natural language processing.
Recognizing human actions: A local SVM approach
- In ICPR
, 2004
"... Local space-time features capture local events in video and can be adapted to the size, the frequency and the velocity of moving patterns. In this paper we demonstrate how such features can be used for recognizing complex motion patterns. We construct video representations in terms of local space-ti ..."

The process group approach to reliable distributed computing

, 1993
"... The difficulty of developing reliable distributed softwme is an impediment to applying distributed computing technology in many settings. Expeti _ with the Isis system suggests that a structured approach based on virtually synchronous _ groups yields systems that are substantially easier to develop, ..."

A Bayesian approach to filtering junk E-mail
- PAPERS FROM THE 1998 WORKSHOP, AAAI
, 1998
"... In addressing the growing problem of junk E-mail on the Internet, we examine methods for the automated construction of filters to eliminate such unwanted messages from a user’s mail stream. By casting this problem in a decision theoretic framework, we are able to make use of probabilistic learning m ..."

Evaluating the Accuracy of Sampling-Based Approaches to the Calculation of Posterior Moments
- IN BAYESIAN STATISTICS
, 1992
"... Data augmentation and Gibbs sampling are two closely related, sampling-based approaches to the calculation of posterior moments. The fact that each produces a sample whose constituents are neither independent nor identically distributed complicates the assessment of convergence and numerical accurac ..."
