The cluster assumption is exploited by most semi-supervised learning (SSL) methods. However, if the unlabeled data is merely weakly related to the target classes, it becomes questionable whether driving the decision boundary to the low density regions of the unlabeled data will help the classification. In such case, the cluster assumption may not be valid; and consequently how to leverage this ...

A subsequence principle is obtained, characterizing Banach spacescontaining co' in the spirit of the author's 1974 characterization of Banachspaces containing II . Defiaition. A sequence(bj )in a Banach space is called strongly summing (s.s.)if (bj ) is a weak-Cauchy basic sequence so that whenever scalars (cj ) satisfysUPn II E~=I cijll < 00, thenECj converges.A...

Extracting relations from text corpora is an important task in text mining. It becomes particularly challenging when focusing on weakly-supervised relation extraction, that is, utilizing a few relation instances (i.e., a pair of entities and their relation) as seeds to extract more instances from corpora. Existing distributional approaches leverage the corpus-level co-occurrence statistics of e...

Internet Electron. J. Mol. Des.2004 Abstract Motivation. Methane and carbon monoxide play important roles in atmospheric and combustion chemistry. In the atmosphere weakly bound complex will be a candidate for the green house effect due to the ability to accumulate the additional vibration energy. It is important to elucidate the intermolecular interaction between CH4 and CO. Method. The MP2 ca...
