....stream of research which uses unlabeled data in classification is termed learning from positive and unlabeled data. In 1998, F. Denis defined the PAC learning model for positive and unlabeled examples, and showed that kDNF (Disjunctive Normal Form) is learnable from positive and unlabeled examples [7]. Since then, some experimental attempts to learn using positive and unlabeled data have been tried using k DNF or decision trees [13, 5] However, those methods are not very useful for Web page classification problems because; 1) k DNF or decision trees are not very tolerant with high ....
....the one class SVM does not utilize the distribution of unlabeled data. Our approach is fundamentally different from previous approaches. The first stage of the M C algorithm (called the mapping stage) is based on 1 DNF, which was previously proven learnable from positive and unlabeled data [7].

....too: for a web page classi cation problem, unlabelled web pages can be inexpensively gathered, a set of web pages you are interested in is available in your bookmarks, labelled web pages are fairly expensive but a small set of hand labelled web pages can be designed. It has been proved in [Den98] that many concepts classes, namely those which are learnable from statistical queries, can be e ciently learned in a PAC framework using positive and unlabelled data only. But the price to pay is a considerable increase in the number of examples needed to achieve learning (although it remains of ....

....and shown the existence of polynomially computable characteristic samples sufficient for identification from positive data. See also [Yok95] HKY98] Due to the free distribution and polynomial running time requirements, results are still weaker in PAC learning framework ( Nat91a] Shv90] [Den98]) Gold suggests that one of the reason why natural language learning is possible is that the learner is not provided with arbitrary examples. There are several ways to give substance to this idea: ffl the learner may asks queries. Angluin proved in [Ang87] that REG is exactly learnable within ....
....= L and Learn(Teach(L) L 0 , which is contradictory. Unfortunately, the situation is even getting worse in the PAC learning model. It can be easily shown that if a class is PAC learnable from positive data (as the class of k CNF) the output hypothesis must be included in the target concept ([Den98]) But as it is impossible from positive data to differentiate a negative example from an absent positive one, even very simple classes cannot be PAC learnable from positive data. See [Nat91a] Shv90] Den98] for a detailed study. See also [Sak92] for results on grammatical inference about ....
