Approximate Statistical Tests for Comparing Supervised Classification Learning Algorithms

by Thomas G. Dietterich , 1998
"... This article reviews five approximate statistical tests for determining whether one learning algorithm outperforms another on a particular learning task. These tests are compared experimentally to determine their probability of incorrectly detecting a difference when no difference exists (type I err ..."

error). Two widely used statistical tests are shown to have high probability of type I error in certain situations and should never be used: a test for the difference of two proportions and a paired-differences t test based on taking several random train-test splits. A third test, a paired

The FERET evaluation methodology for face recognition algorithms

by P. Jonathon Phillips, Hyeonjoon Moon, Syed A. Rizvi, Patrick J. Rauss - In (a) Example 1 (b) Example 1 (c) Right ear) (d) Mirroed Left ear
"... AbstractÐTwo of the most critical requirements in support of producing reliable face-recognition systems are a large database of facial images and a testing procedure to evaluate systems. The Face Recognition Technology (FERET) program has addressed both issues through the FERET database of facial i ..."

images and the establishment of the FERET tests. To date, 14,126 images from 1,199 individuals are included in the FERET database, which is divided into development and sequestered portions of the database. In September 1996, the FERET program administered the third in a series of FERET face

Using Maimonides’ Rule to Estimate the Effect of Class Size on Scholastic Achievement

by Joshua D. Angrist, Victor Lavy - QUARTERLY JOURNAL OF ECONOMICS , 1999
"... The twelfth century rabbinic scholar Maimonides proposed a maximum class size of 40. This same maximum induces a nonlinear and nonmonotonic relation-ship between grade enrollment and class size in Israeli public schools today. Maimonides’ rule of 40 is used here to construct instrumental variables e ..."

estimates of effects of class size on test scores. The resulting identification strategy can be viewed as an application of Donald Campbell’s regression-discontinuity design to the class-size question. The estimates show that reducing class size induces a significant and substantial increase in test scores

Experimental Estimates of Education Production Functions

by Alan B. Krueger - Princeton University, Industrial Relations Section Working Paper No. 379 , 1997
"... This paper analyzes data on 11,600 students and their teachers who were randomly assigned to different size classes from kindergarten through third grade. Statistical methods are used to adjust for nonrandom attrition and transitions between classes. The main conclusions are (1) on average, performa ..."

Fast Parallel Algorithms for Short-Range Molecular Dynamics

by Steve Plimpton - JOURNAL OF COMPUTATIONAL PHYSICS , 1995
"... Three parallel algorithms for classical molecular dynamics are presented. The first assigns each processor a fixed subset of atoms; the second assigns each a fixed subset of inter-atomic forces to compute; the third assigns each a fixed spatial region. The algorithms are suitable for molecular dyn ..."

Diagnosing multiple faults.

by Johan De Kleer , Brian C Williams - Artificial Intelligence, , 1987
"... Abstract Diagnostic tasks require determining the differences between a model of an artifact and the artifact itself. The differences between the manifested behavior of the artifact and the predicted behavior of the model guide the search for the differences between the artifact and its model. The ..."
Abstract - Cited by 808 (62 self) - Add to MetaCart
. The diagnostic procedure presented in this paper is model-based, inferring the behavior of the composite device from knowledge of the structure and function of the individual components comprising the device. The system (GDE -General Diagnostic Engine) has been implemented and tested on many examples

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 ..."

The third one computes the relative-tothe -ideal performance of IR techniques, based on the cumulative gain they are able to yield. The novel

Computation and Analysis of Multiple Structural Change Models.‖

by Jushan Bai , Pierre Perron - Journal of Applied Econometrics , 2003
"... SUMMARY In a recent paper, Bai and Perron (1998) considered theoretical issues related to the limiting distribution of estimators and test statistics in the linear model with multiple structural changes. In this companion paper, we consider practical issues for the empirical applications of the pro ..."

of breaks. Our method can be applied to both pure and partial structural change models. Second, we consider the problem of forming confidence intervals for the break dates under various hypotheses about the structure of the data and the errors across segments. Third, we address the issue of testing

X-means: Extending K-means with Efficient Estimation of the Number of Clusters

by Dau Pelleg, Andrew Moore - In Proceedings of the 17th International Conf. on Machine Learning , 2000
"... Despite its popularity for general clustering, K-means suffers three major shortcomings; it scales poorly computationally, the number of clusters K has to be supplied by the user, and the search is prone to local minima. We propose solutions for the first two problems, and a partial remedy for the t ..."

for the third. Building on prior work for algorithmic acceleration that is not based on approximation, we introduce a new algorithm that efficiently, searches the space of cluster locations and number of clusters to optimize the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) or the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC

Where do interorganizational networks come from?

by Ranjay Gulati, Martin Gargiulo , 1998
"... Organizations enter alliances with each other to access critical resources, but they rely on information from the network of prior alliances to determine with whom to cooperate. These new alliances modify the existing network, prompting an endogenous dynamic between organizational action and network ..."

Testing these ideas on alliances formed in three industries over nine years, the authors show that the probability of a new alliance between specific organizations increases with their interdependence, but also with their prior
