The Knowledge Discovery Machine Learning (KDML) group focuses on the neighboring subfields of computer science known as knowledge discovery in databases (KDD, sometimes referred to simply as data mining) and machine learning (ML). For us, these fields include on the one hand the automated analysis of large data sets using intelligent algorithms that are capable of extracting from the collected data hidden knowledge in order to produce models that can be used for prediction and decision making. On the other hand, they also include algorithms and systems that are capable of learning from experience and adapting to their environment or their users.
I'm interested in machine learning techniques (graphical models, kernel methods) applied to text understanding (entity and relation extraction, coreference resolution, document classification and clustering, confidence prediction, social network analysis, data mining).
The mission of the Journal of Machine Learning Gossip (JMLG) is to provide an archival source of important information that is often discussed informally at conferences but is rarely, if ever, written down.
What's Torch ?
It's a machine-learning library, written in simple C++ and distributed now under a BSD license.
Torch is currently developed at IDIAP, in Switzerland mountains.
Lush is an object-oriented programming language designed for researchers, experimenters, and engineers interested in large-scale numerical and graphic applications.
The aim of MLpedia is to provide comprehensive information on a range of machine learning methods and applications, written and maintained by researchers and practitioners. Find out how to take part.
