Some studies in machine learning using the game of Checkers

by Arthur L. Samuel - IBM JOURNAL OF RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT , 1959
"... Two machine-learning procedures have been investigated in some detail using the game of checkers. Enough work has been done to verify the fact that a computer can be programmed so that it will learn to play a better game of checkers than can be played by the person who wrote the program. Furthermor ..."

. Furthermore, it can learn to do this in a remarkably short period of time (8 or 10 hours of machine-playing time) when given only the rules of the game, a sense of direction, and a redundant and incomplete list of parameters which are thought to have something to do with the game, but whose correct signs

Web Document Clustering: A Feasibility Demonstration

by Oren Zamir, Oren Etzioni , 1998
"... Abstract Users of Web search engines are often forced to sift through the long ordered list of document “snippets” returned by the engines. The IR community has explored document clustering as an alternative method of organizing retrieval results, but clustering has yet to be deployed on the major s ..."

Rule Induction with CN2: Some Recent Improvements

by Peter Clark, Robin Boswell , 1991
"... The CN2 algorithm induces an ordered list of classification rules from examples using entropy as its search heuristic. In this short paper, we describe two improvements to this algorithm. Firstly, we present the use of the Laplacian error estimate as an alternative evaluation function and secondly, ..."

Hamming embedding and weak geometric consistency for large scale image search

by Herve Jegou, Matthijs Douze, Cordelia Schmid - In ECCV , 2008
"... Abstract. This paper improves recent methods for large scale image search. State-of-the-art methods build on the bag-of-features image representation. We, first, analyze bag-of-features in the framework of approximate nearest neighbor search. This shows the suboptimality of such a representation for ..."

consistency constraints as well as their efficiency. Estimation of the full geometric transformation, i.e., a re-ranking step on a short list of images, is complementary to our weak geometric consistency constraints and allows to further improve the accuracy. 1

Learning to rank: from pairwise approach to listwise approach

by Zhe Cao, Tao Qin, Tie-yan Liu, Hang Li - In Proc. ICML’07 , 2007
"... The paper is concerned with learning to rank, which is to construct a model or a function for ranking objects. Learning to rank is useful for document retrieval, collaborative filtering, and many other applications. Several methods for learning to rank have been proposed, which take object pairs as ..."

as ‘instances ’ in learning. We refer to them as the pairwise approach in this paper. Although the pairwise approach offers advantages, it ignores the fact that ranking is a prediction task on list of objects. The paper postulates that learning to rank should adopt the listwise approach in which lists

Linear Modeling Of mRNA Expression Levels During CNS Development And Injury

by Patrik D'Haeseleer, Xiling Wen, Stefanie Fuhrman, X. Wen, S. Fuhrman, Roland Somogyi , 1999
"... this paper, we will leave out the inputs to these genes. Since the least squares solution essentially solves a linear regression for each gene independently, failure to achieve a biologically plausible model for some of the genes does not imply that the rest of the model is unreliable. The sum of in ..."

, preGAD67 and GAD65. Note that this short list consists entirely of neurotransmitter metabolizing enzymes (AChE, GAD67, GAD65) and neurotransmitter receptors (mGluR3, 5HT1b, GRa2). mGluR3 is a member of the metabotropic glutamate receptor family, and transduces the glutamate signal to the intracellular

Alterations in brain and immune function produced by mindfulness meditation

by Richard J. Davidson, Jon Kabat-zinn, Jessica Schumacher, Melissa Rosenkranz, Katherine Bonus, John, F. Sheridan - Psychosomatic Medicine , 2003
"... Objective: The underlying changes in biological processes that are associated with reported changes in mental and physical health in response to meditation have not been systematically explored. We performed a randomized, controlled study on the effects on brain and immune function of a well-known a ..."

tested in the meditation group. A wait-list control group (N � 16) was tested at the same points in time as the meditators. At the end of the 8-week period, subjects in both groups were vaccinated with influenza vaccine. Results: We report for the first time significant increases in left-sided anterior

Approximate String Joins in a Database (Almost) for Free - Erratum

"... case the result returned by the Figure 1 query is incomplete and su#ers from "false negatives," in contrast to our claim to the contrary in [GIJ 01b]. In general, the string pairs that are omitted are pairs of short strings. Even when these strings match within small edit distance, t ..."

negatives are only pairs of short strings, we can join all pairs of these small strings, using only the length filter, and UNION the result with the result of the SQL query described in [GIJ 01b]. We list the modified query in Figure 2. 2 Experimental Results We now experimentally measure the number

A principal-components analysis of the Narcissistic Personality Inventory and further evidence of its construct validity.

by Robert Raskin , Howard Terry , Kenneth Craik , John Kamp , Jill Novacek , Dan Ozer - Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, , 1988
"... We examined the internal and external validity of the Narcissistic Personality Inventory (NPI). Study 1 explored the internal structure of the NPI responses of 1,018 subjects. Using principal-components analysis, we analyzed the tetrachoric correlations among the NPI item responses and found eviden ..."

observational and self-report data in a sample of 57 subjects. Study 3 investigated the NPI's construct validity with respect to 128 subjects' self and ideal self-descriptions, and their congruency, on the Leary Interpersonal Check List. The results from Studies 2 and 3 tend to support the construct
