A Fast Marching Level Set Method for Monotonically Advancing Fronts

by J. A. Sethian - PROC. NAT. ACAD. SCI , 1995
"... We present a fast marching level set method for monotonically advancing fronts, which leads to an extremely fast scheme for solving the Eikonal equation. Level set methods are numerical techniques for computing the position of propagating fronts. They rely on an initial value partial differential eq ..."

Discrete Choice Methods with Simulation

by Kenneth E. Train , 2002
"... This book describes the new generation of discrete choice meth-ods, focusing on the many advances that are made possible by simulation. Researchers use these statistical methods to examine the choices that consumers, households, firms, and other agents make. Each of the major models is covered: logi ..."

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 ..."

A simple method for displaying the hydropathic character of a protein

by Jack Kyte, Russell, F. Doolittle - Journal of Molecular Biology , 1982
"... A computer program that progressively evaluates the hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity of a protein along its amino acid sequence has been devised. For this purpose, a hydropathy scale has been composed wherein the hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties of each of the 20 amino acid side-chains is tak ..."
Abstract - Cited by 2287 (2 self) - Add to MetaCart
-chains is taken into consideration. The scale is based on an amalgam of experimental observations derived from the literature. The program uses a moving-segment approach that continuously determines the average hydropathy within a segment of predetermined length as it advances through the sequence

Selection of relevant features and examples in machine learning

by Avrim L. Blum, Pat Langley - ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE , 1997
"... In this survey, we review work in machine learning on methods for handling data sets containing large amounts of irrelevant information. We focus on two key issues: the problem of selecting relevant features, and the problem of selecting relevant examples. We describe the advances that have been mad ..."

Supervised and unsupervised discretization of continuous features

by James Dougherty, Ron Kohavi, Mehran Sahami - in A. Prieditis & S. Russell, eds, Machine Learning: Proceedings of the Twelfth International Conference , 1995
"... Many supervised machine learning algorithms require a discrete feature space. In this paper, we review previous work on continuous feature discretization, identify de n-ing characteristics of the methods, and conduct an empirical evaluation of several methods. We compare binning, an unsupervised dis ..."

ATOMIC DECOMPOSITION BY BASIS PURSUIT

by Scott Shaobing Chen , David L. Donoho , Michael A. Saunders , 1995
"... The Time-Frequency and Time-Scale communities have recently developed a large number of overcomplete waveform dictionaries -- stationary wavelets, wavelet packets, cosine packets, chirplets, and warplets, to name a few. Decomposition into overcomplete systems is not unique, and several methods for d ..."
Abstract - Cited by 2728 (61 self) - Add to MetaCart
successfully only because of recent advances in linear programming by interior-point methods. We obtain reasonable success with a primal-dual logarithmic barrier method and conjugate-gradient solver.

Mega: molecular evolutionary genetic analysis software for microcomputers

by Sudhir Kumar, Koichiro Tamura, Masatoshi Nei - CABIOS , 1994
"... A computer program package called MEGA has been developed for estimating evolutionary distances, reconstructing phylogenetic trees and computing basic statistical quantities from molecular data. It is written in C+ + and is intended to be used on IBM and IBM-compatible personal computers. In this pr ..."
Abstract - Cited by 505 (10 self) - Add to MetaCart
. In this program, various methods for estimating evolutionary distances from nucleotide and amino acid sequence data, three different methods of phylogenetic inference (UPGMA, neighbor-joining and maximum parsimony) and two statistical tests of topological differences are included. For the maximum parsimony method

Support Vector Machine Active Learning with Applications to Text Classification

by Simon Tong , Daphne Koller - JOURNAL OF MACHINE LEARNING RESEARCH , 2001
"... Support vector machines have met with significant success in numerous real-world learning tasks. However, like most machine learning algorithms, they are generally applied using a randomly selected training set classified in advance. In many settings, we also have the option of using pool-based acti ..."
