Several features are selected to formulate this problem. The weighted margin is proposed as the new uncertainty measure criterion for unlabeled instance, and a density measure is introduced for avoiding selecting isolated instances. Experiments and simulations on different classes of students show the proposed quantitative analysis method is feasible and effective, which can provide teachers with some useful guidelines for how to improve the college English teaching.","PeriodicalId":228516,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Machine Learning and Cybernetics","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114714551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

And, the correlation coefficient is designed to depict the linear dependence between condition attribute and decision attribute. Our strategy calculates the hybrid of gain ration and correlation coefficient and uses this hybrid as the weight of given condition attribute. In order to validate the feasibility and effectiveness of NBCH, we experimentally compare our method with standard naïve Bayesian classifier (NBC), NBC with gain ratio weight (NBCGR), and NBC with correlation coefficient weight (NBCCC) on 10 UCI datasets.

A great number of digital mammograms are generated in hospitals and screening centers. Those digital mammograms can further be used for study and research by medical professionals. Content-based image retrieval refers to the retrieval of images whose contents are similar to a query example, using information derived from the images themselves. Relevance feedback, expressing the user's search target, can be used to bridge the semantic gap and improve the performance of CBIR systems. This study proposes a learning method for relevance feedback learning, which develops multiple logistic regression models to generalize the classification problem and provide an estimate of probability of class membership. To build the model, relevance feedback is utilized as the training data and the IRLS method is applied to estimate the parameters of the regression model and compute the maximum likelihood. Logistic regression models are created individually. After logistic regression models are fitted, discriminating features are selected by the measure of goodness of fit statistics. The weights of those discriminating features can be assigned according to their individual contributions to the maximum likelihood. The probability of the membership of the relevant class can therefore be obtained for each image of the database. Experimental results show that the proposed learning method can effectively improve the average precision from 30% to 65% through five iterations of relevance feedback rounds.","PeriodicalId":228516,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Machine Learning and Cybernetics","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129581736","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conventional thresholding methods cannot threshold these kind documents, usually full text images, properly. If the degraded document image includes both text and photo, these methods produce unsatisfactory binarizaion results. This paper presents an efficient and effective intelligent thresholding method for degraded text-photo document images, including: gray-level region cutting is proposed to segment the gray-level document image into several regions intelligently; each region is thresholded by using region thresholding; the gray-level document image is converted into a binary image. Experimental results show that the performance of the proposed method is better than other available thresholding methods in visual measurement.","PeriodicalId":228516,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Machine Learning and Cybernetics","volume":"60 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127317579","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
