result No significant difference in learning, memory retention, and recall between 2D and 3D educational content.

This paper presents an automated supervised method for Persian wordnet construction. Using a Persian corpus and a bi-lingual dictionary, the initial links between Persian words and Princeton WordNet synsets have been generated. These links will be discriminated later as correct or incorrect by employing seven features …

Improves estimation under model misspecification with fake features.

problem Model misspecification with fake features.
method Proposes a framework to decompose output error into underlying, fake, and missing features.
result Fake features can significantly improve estimation performance, even when not correlated with underlying features.

Machine learning models are often susceptible to adversarial perturbations of their inputs. Even small perturbations can cause state-of-the-art classifiers with high "standard" accuracy to produce an incorrect prediction with high confidence. To better understand this phenomenon, we study adversarially robust learning …

result Substantially better results compared to state-of-the-art approaches.

This paper proposes a novel type of random forests called a denoising random forests that are robust against noises contained in test samples. Such noise-corrupted samples cause serious damage to the estimation performances of random forests, since unexpected child nodes are often selected and the leaf nodes that the i…

method Imputated Causal Learning (ICL) framework for iterative missing data imputation and causal structure discovery.
result ICL outperforms state-of-the-art methods in various missing data scenarios.

Missing data and noisy observations pose significant challenges for reliably predicting events from irregularly sampled multivariate time series (longitudinal) data. Imputation methods, which are typically used for completing the data prior to event prediction, lack a principled mechanism to account for the uncertainty…
