When the training data in a two-class classification problem is overwhelmed by one class, most classification techniques fail to correctly identify the data points belonging to the underrepresented class. We propose Similarity-based Imbalanced Classification (SBIC) that learns patterns in the training data based on an …

LS improves model selection for singular statistical models.
problem Challenges in model selection for singular statistical models.
method Integrates empirical loss from WAIC and sBIC penalty term.
result Enhanced utility for model selection without regularity constraints.
A key challenge in crowdsourcing is inferring the ground truth from noisy and unreliable data. To do so, existing approaches rely on collecting redundant information from the crowd, and aggregating it with some probabilistic method. However, oftentimes such methods are computationally inefficient, are restricted to som…
The sBIC outperforms other model selection criteria in LDA topic modeling.
problem Selecting the optimal number of topics in Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) models.
method Monte Carlo simulations comparing sBIC to other criteria.
result sBIC is superior for choosing the number of topics in LDA models.
Evaluation of the marginal likelihood plays an important role in model selection problems. The widely applicable Bayesian information criterion (WBIC) and singular Bayesian information criterion (sBIC) give approximations to the log marginal likelihood, which can be applied to both regular and singular models. When the…
Study compares methods for improving document retrieval accuracy.
problem Improving document retrieval accuracy from large corpora.
method Comparison of query expansion, topic models, and active learning.
result Active learning outperforms keyword lists in most settings.
