Document clustering based on cluster validation

TL;DR: Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can find important feature subset, estimate the model order and yield higher micro-averaged precision than other four document clustering algorithms which require cluster number to be provided.

Hybrid data fusion approach for fault diagnosis of fixed-axis gearbox:

TL;DR: The results show that the hybrid of empirical mode decomposition–Teager–Kaiser energy operator techniques employs the advantages traits of one or the other technique to generate overall improvement in diagnosing severity of local faults.

A Branch and Bound Algorithm for Feature Subset Selection

TL;DR: In this paper, a branch and bound-based feature subset selection algorithm is proposed to select the best subset of m features from an n-feature set without exhaustive search, which is computationally computationally unfeasible.

On the effectiveness of receptors in recognition systems

TL;DR: Some of the theoretical problems encountered in trying to determine a more formal measure of the effectiveness of a set of tests are discussed; a measure which might be a practical substitute for the empirical evaluation.
