TLDR
This paper gives algorithms for inference of local, single type and regular grammar and also considers the use of negative samples in the inference of tree grammars from a set of sample input trees.
Abstract
Grammatical Inference is the technique by which a grammar that best describes a given set of input samples is inferred. This paper considers the inference of tree grammars from a set of sample input trees. Inference of grammars for fixed arity trees is well studied, in this paper we extend the method to give algorithms for inference of grammars for variable arity trees. We give algorithms for inference of local, single type and regular grammar and also consider the use of negative samples. The variable arity trees we consider can be used for representation of XML documents and the algorithms we have given can be used for validation as well as for schema inference.

Requirements Flowdown for Prognostics and Health Management

TL;DR: A systems engineering view towards the requirements specification process and a method for the flowdown process is presented and a case study based on an electric Unmanned Aerial Vehicle scenario demonstrates how top level requirements for performance, cost, and safety flow down to the health management level and specify quantitative requirements for prognostic algorithm performance.

On The Power of Distributed Bottom-up Tree Automata

TL;DR: This paper considers bottom-up tree automata and discusses the sequential distributed version of this model, and finds that the ∗- mode does not increase the power, whereas the other modes increase thePower.

Some Models for Estimating Technical and Scale Inefficiencies in Data Envelopment Analysis

TL;DR: The CCR ratio form introduced by Charnes, Cooper and Rhodes, as part of their Data Envelopment Analysis approach, comprehends both technical and scale inefficiencies via the optimal value of the ratio form, as obtained directly from the data without requiring a priori specification of weights and/or explicit delineation of assumed functional forms of relations between inputs and outputs as mentioned in this paper.

The use of the area under the ROC curve in the evaluation of machine learning algorithms

TL;DR: AUC exhibits a number of desirable properties when compared to overall accuracy: increased sensitivity in Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) tests; a standard error that decreased as both AUC and the number of test samples increased; decision threshold independent; and it is invariant to a priori class probabilities.

Using AUC and accuracy in evaluating learning algorithms

TL;DR: It is shown theoretically and empirically that AUC is a better measure (defined precisely) than accuracy and reevaluate well-established claims in machine learning based on accuracy using AUC and obtain interesting and surprising new results.

Robust Classification for Imprecise Environments

TL;DR: It is shown that it is possible to build a hybrid classifier that will perform at least as well as the best available classifier for any target conditions, and in some cases, the performance of the hybrid actually can surpass that of the best known classifier.

Robust Classification for Imprecise Environments

TL;DR: The ROC convex hull (ROCCH) method as mentioned in this paper combines techniques from ROC analysis, decision analysis and computational geometry, and adapts them to the particulars of analyzing learned classifiers.
