A unified architecture for natural language processing

We describe a single convolutional neural network architecture that, given a sentence, outputs a host of language processing predictions: part-of-speech tags, chunks, named enti...

Gene Selection for Cancer Classification using Support Vector Machines

Gene functional classification from heterogeneous data

In our attempts to understand cellular function at the molecular level, we must be able to synthesize information from disparate types of genomic data. We consider the problem o...

Fast kernel classifiers with online and active learning

Very high dimensional learning systems become theoretically possible when training examples are abundant. The computing cost then becomes the limiting factor. Any efficient lear...

Fisher discriminant analysis with kernels

A non-linear classification technique based on Fisher's discriminant is proposed. Main ingredient is the kernel trick which allows to efficiently compute the linear Fisher discr...
