Most research in text classification to date has used a bag of words representation in which each feature corresponds to a single word. This paper examines some alternative ways to represent text based on syntactic and semantic... more
Voting in uncontrolled environment either by post or by the Internet is about to be made generally available in many countries. The main purpose is to increase participation at times when the voter turnout is generally decreasing.... more
Never has voting been more important in corporate law. With greater activism among shareholders and the shift from plurality to majority voting for directors, the number of close votes is rising. But is the basic technology of corporate... more
Most research in text classification has used the “bag of words ” representation of text. This paper examines some alternative ways to represent text based on syntactic and semantic relationships between words (phrases, synonyms and... more
The N-Modular Redundancy (NMR) architecture has shown to perform fault-masking with acceptable cost and performance. The restriction to the majority voting imposed by many of its implementation models often discourages its use in... more
Abstract Gender classification problem is an active area of research; recently it had attracted many researchers. This study presents an efficient gender classification technique. Weighted Majority Voting (WMV) is the most popular... more
In this paper, we investigate the possible externalities due to a minimum wage policy in an integrated market. We examine both descriptive and normative perspectives. We consider two identical countries for whom comparative advantage is... more
A script independent recognition scheme for handwritten characters using multiple MLP classifiers and wavelet transform-based multiresolution pixel features is presented. We studied four different approaches for combination of multiple... more
Proactive contact campaigns play a growing role in modern contact centers. Their traditional usage as a telemarketing tool now is widely extended to different types of service notifications. In this paper we describe the most common model... more
ABSTRACT One problem in the field of machine learning is that the performance on the training and validation sets lack robustness when applied in real-life situations. Recent advances in ensemble methods have demonstrated that robust... more

The problem of the aggregation of consistent individual judgments on logically interconnected propositions into a collective judgment on the same propositions has recently drawn much attention. The difficulty lies in the fact that a... more
In this paper three different approaches for person verification and identification, ie by means of fingerprints, face and voice recognition, are studied. Face recognition uses parts-based representation methods and a manifold learning... more

Segmentation of optical images may be obtained through algorithms based on image prior models that exploit the spatial dependencies of land covers. In synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images, speckle conceals such spatial dependencies and... more
The thesis presented here analyzes the role of the less developed countries in the environmental issues in the United Nations, evaluates their influence, and analyzes the determinants of this influence. Our study assumes certain goal... more
This paper defines a measure of bargaining uncertainty that quantifies Roth's concept of strategic risk. It shows how this measure can be used for checking reliability of the Shapley value in cost allocation problems and in the theory... more
In this paper, we analyze the equilibrium on the market for schooling where both public and private schools coexist and where individuals are differentiated by income and ability. We introduce a non linear in means model of peer effect by... more
Web spam can significantly deteriorate the quality of search engine results. Thus there is a large incentive for commercial search engines to detect spam pages efficiently and accurately. In this paper we present a spam detection system... more
