We present a probabilistic model for a document corpus that combines many of the desirable features of previous models. The model is called “GaP” for Gamma-Poisson, the distri...
RankBoost is a recently proposed algorithm for learning ranking functions. It is simple to implement and has strong justifications from computational learning theory. We describe...

A term rewriting system is called complete if it is both confluent and strongly norrealizing. Barendregt and Klop showed that the disjoint union of complete term rewriting systems...
Ideally pattern recognition machines provide constant output when the inputs are transformed under a group G of desired invariances. These invariances can be achieved by enhancing...
