Feature selection based on mutual information: Criteria of max-dependency, max-relevance, and min-redundancy

by Hanchuan Peng, Fuhui Long, Chris Ding - IEEE TRANS. PATTERN ANALYSIS AND MACHINE INTELLIGENCE , 2005
"... Feature selection is an important problem for pattern classification systems. We study how to select good features according to the maximal statistical dependency criterion based on mutual information. Because of the difficulty in directly implementing the maximal dependency condition, we first der ..."

Cumulated Gain-based Evaluation of IR Techniques

by Kalervo Järvelin, Jaana Kekäläinen - ACM Transactions on Information Systems , 2002
"... Modem large retrieval environments tend to overwhelm their users by their large output. Since all documents are not of equal relevance to their users, highly relevant documents should be identified and ranked first for presentation to the users. In order to develop IR techniques to this direction, i ..."

, it is necessary to develop evaluation approaches and methods that credit IR methods for their ability to retrieve highly relevant documents. This can be done by extending traditional evaluation methods, i.e., recall and precision based on binary relevance assessments, to graded relevance assessments

The use of MMR, diversity-based reranking for reordering documents and producing summaries

by Jaime Carbonell, Jade Goldstein - In SIGIR , 1998
"... jadeQcs.cmu.edu Abstract This paper presents a method for combining query-relevance with information-novelty in the context of text retrieval and summarization. The Maximal Marginal Relevance (MMR) criterion strives to reduce redundancy while maintaining query relevance in re-ranking retrieved docum ..."

Fab: Content-based, collaborative recommendation

by Marko Balabanovic, Yoav Shoham - Communications of the ACM , 1997
"... Fab is a recommendation system designed to help users sift through the enormous amount of information available in the World Wide Web. Operational since Dec. 1994, this system combines the content-based and collaborative methods of recommendation in a way that exploits the advantages of the two appr ..."

Assessing coping strategies: A theoretically based approach

by Charles S. Carver, Michael F. Scheier, Jagdish Kumari Weintraub - Journal of Personality and Social Psychology , 1989
"... We developed a multidimensional coping inventory to assess the different ways in which people respond to stress. Five scales (of four items each) measure conceptually distinct aspects of problem-focused coping (active coping, planning, suppression of competing activities, restraint coping, seek-ing ..."

of emotions, behavioral disengagement, mental disengagement). Study 1 reports the development of scale items. Study 2 reports correlations between the various coping scales and sev-eral theoretically relevant personality measures in an effort to provide preliminary information about the inventory

General methods for monitoring convergence of iterative simulations

by Stephen P. Brooksand, Andrew Gelman - J. Comput. Graph. Statist , 1998
"... We generalize the method proposed by Gelman and Rubin (1992a) for monitoring the convergence of iterative simulations by comparing between and within variances of multiple chains, in order to obtain a family of tests for convergence. We review methods of inference from simulations in order to develo ..."
Abstract - Cited by 551 (8 self) - Add to MetaCart
to develop convergence-monitoring summaries that are relevant for the purposes for which the simulations are used. We recommend applying a battery of tests for mixing based on the comparison of inferences from individual sequences and from the mixture of sequences. Finally, we discuss multivariate analogues

Photo tourism: Exploring photo collections in 3D

by Noah Snavely, Steven M. Seitz, Richard Szeliski - IN PROC. ACM SIGGRAPH , 2006
"... We present a system for interactively browsing and exploring large unstructured collections of photographs of a scene using a novel 3D interface. Our system consists of an image-based modeling front end that automatically computes the viewpoint of each photograph as well as a sparse 3D model of th ..."

Authoritative Sources in a Hyperlinked Environment

by Jon M. Kleinberg - JOURNAL OF THE ACM , 1999
"... The network structure of a hyperlinked environment can be a rich source of information about the content of the environment, provided we have effective means for understanding it. We develop a set of algorithmic tools for extracting information from the link structures of such environments, and repo ..."
Abstract - Cited by 3632 (12 self) - Add to MetaCart
an algorithmic formulation of the notion of authority, based on the relationship between a set of relevant authoritative pages and the set of “hub pages ” that join them together in the link structure. Our formulation has connections to the eigenvectors of certain matrices associated with the link graph
