We consider an extension of model-based clustering to the semi-supervised case, where some of the data are pre-labeled. We provide a derivation of the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) approximation to the Bayes factor in this setting.…
We consider the flare prediction problem that distinguishes flare-imminent active regions that produce an M- or X-class flare in the future 24 hours, from quiet active regions that do not produce any flare within $\pm 24$ hours. Using…
Semi-supervised domain adaptation is a technique to build a classifier for a target domain by modifying a classifier in another (source) domain using many unlabeled samples and a small number of labeled samples from the target domain. In…
