Recommendation Systems apply Information Retrieval techniques to select the online information relevant to a given user. Collaborative Filtering is currently most widely used approach to build Recommendation System. CF techniques uses the…

Swarm optimization algorithms are widely used for feature selection before data mining and machine learning applications. The metaheuristic nature-inspired feature selection approaches are used for single-objective optimization tasks,…

Kernel methods represent one of the most powerful tools in machine learning to tackle problems expressed in terms of function values and derivatives due to their capability to represent and model complex relations. While these methods show…

Selecting a small set of representatives from a large database is important in many applications such as multi-criteria decision making, web search, and recommendation. The $k$-regret minimizing set ($k$-RMS) problem was recently proposed…

Music Recommender Systems (mRS) are designed to give personalised and meaningful recommendations of items (i.e. songs, playlists or artists) to a user base, thereby reflecting and further complementing individual users' specific music…

In this paper, a novel feature selection approach for supervised interval valued features is proposed. The proposed approach takes care of selecting the class specific features through interval K-Means clustering. The kernel of K-Means…

Correlations in streams of multivariate time series data means that typically, only a small subset of the features are required for a given data mining task. In this paper, we propose a technique which we call Merit Score for Time-Series…

Although numerous clustering algorithms have been developed, many existing methods still leverage k-means technique to detect clusters of data points. However, the performance of k-means heavily depends on the estimation of centers of…

This paper studies the fixed budget formulation of the Ranking and Selection (R&S) problem with independent normal samples, where the goal is to investigate different algorithms' convergence rate in terms of their resulting probability of…

Recommender systems (RSs) have become an inseparable part of our everyday lives. They help us find our favorite items to purchase, our friends on social networks, and our favorite movies to watch. Traditionally, the recommendation problem…

We study the data selection problem, whose aim is to select a small representative subset of data that can be used to efficiently train a machine learning model. We present a new data selection approach based on $k$-means clustering and…

Unsupervised feature selection (UFS) is an important task in data engineering. However, most UFS methods construct models from a single perspective and often fail to simultaneously evaluate feature importance and preserve their inherent…

Quantile feature selection over correlated multivariate time series data has always been a methodological challenge and is an open problem. In this paper, we propose a general Bayesian dimension reduction methodology for feature selection…

Incorporating fairness constructs into machine learning algorithms is a topic of much societal importance and recent interest. Clustering, a fundamental task in unsupervised learning that manifests across a number of web data scenarios, has…

K-means Fast Learning Artificial Neural Network (K-FLANN) is an unsupervised neural network requires two parameters: tolerance and vigilance. Best Clustering results are feasible only by finest parameters specified to the neural network.…

Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have provided new opportunities for decision-making, particularly in the task of automated feature selection. In this paper, we first comprehensively evaluate LLM-based feature selection…

Auto-regressive Large Language Models (LLMs) demonstrate remarkable performance across different domains such as vision and language processing. However, due to sequential processing through a stack of transformer layers, autoregressive…

Deep Recommender Systems (DRS) are increasingly dependent on a large number of feature fields for more precise recommendations. Effective feature selection methods are consequently becoming critical for further enhancing the accuracy and…

K-Means algorithm is a popular clustering method. However, it has two limitations: 1) it gets stuck easily in spurious local minima, and 2) the number of clusters k has to be given a priori. To solve these two issues, a multi-prototypes…

Deep matrix factorizations (deep MFs) are recent unsupervised data mining techniques inspired by constrained low-rank approximations. They aim to extract complex hierarchies of features within high-dimensional datasets. Most of the loss…
