Text Categorization is the process of automatically assigning predefined categories to free text documents. Feature weighting, which calculates feature (term) values in documents, is one of important preprocessing techniques in text categorization. This paper is a comparative study of feature weighting methods in statistical learning of Thai Document Categorization Framework. Six methods were e...

Although simple additive weighting method (SAW) is the most popular approach for classical multiple attribute decision making (MADM), it is not practical any more if information is fuzzy. The existing methods of Fuzzy Simple Additive Weighting method (FSAW) apply defuzzification which distorts fuzzy numbers. Furthermore, most of the methods usually require lengthy and laborious manipulations. I...

To improve the class separability of Fisher linear discriminant analysis (FDA) for large category problems, we investigate the weighted Fisher criterion (WFC) by integrating weighting functions for dimensionality reduction. The objective of WFC is to maximize the sum of weighted distances of all class pairs. By setting larger weights for the most confusable classes, WFC can improve the class se...

Clustering ensembles has been recently recognized as an emerging approach to provide more robust solutions to the data clustering problem. Current methods of clustering ensembles typically fall into instance-based, cluster-based, or hybrid approaches; however, most of such methods fail in discriminating among the various clusterings that participate to the ensemble. In this paper, we address th...

We provide a simple but novel supervised weighting scheme for adjusting term frequency in tf-idf for sentiment analysis and text classification. We compare our method to baseline weighting schemes and find that it outperforms them on multiple benchmarks. The method is robust and works well on both snippets and longer documents.

Abstract—This paper presents the refinement method for two beams formation of wideband smart antenna. The refinement method for weighting coefficients is based on Fully Spatial Signal Processing by taking Inverse Discrete Fourier Transform (IDFT), and its simulation results are presented using MATLAB. The radiation pattern is created by multiplying the incoming signal with real weights and then...

In this paper, we propose a method how to construct density weighting functions from Copulas. The notion of Copula was introduced by A. Sklar in 1959. A Copula is a dependence function to construct a bivariate distribution function that links joint distributions to their marginals. Other forms of dependence function, based on density weighing functions, have also been developed. The proposed me...
