A. Lendasse, D. Francois, V. Wertz, M. Verleysen
Nonlinear time-series prediction offers potential performance increases compared to linear models. Nevertheless, the enhanced complexity and computation time often prohibits an efficient use of...
Non-Euclidean metrics for similarity search in noisy datasets (2005)
D. Francois, V. Wertz, M. Verleysen
In the context of classification, the dissimilarity between data elements is often measured by a metric defined on the data space. Often, the choice of the metric is often disregarded and the...
