Patent number: 8463718Abstract: Support vector machines are used to classify data contained within a structured dataset such as a plurality of signals generated by a spectral analyzer. The signals are pre-processed to ensure alignment of peaks across the spectra. Similarity measures are constructed to provide a basis for comparison of pairs of samples of the signal. A support vector machine is trained to discriminate between different classes of the samples. to identify the most predictive features within the spectra. In a preferred embodiment feature selection is performed to reduce the number of features that must be considered.Type: GrantFiled: February 4, 2010Date of Patent: June 11, 2013Assignee: Health Discovery CorporationInventors: Asa Ben-Hur, Andre Elisseeff, Olivier Chapelle, Jason Aaron Edward Weston

Patent number: 8209269Abstract: Learning machines, such as support vector machines, are used to analyze datasets to recognize patterns within the dataset using kernels that are selected according to the nature of the data to be analyzed. Where the datasets include an invariance transformation or noise, tangent vectors are defined to identify relationships between the invariance or noise and the training data points. A covariance matrix is formed using the tangent vectors, then used in generation of the kernel, which may be based on a kernel PCA map.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2010Date of Patent: June 26, 2012Assignee: Health Discovery CorporationInventors: Bernhard Schoelkopf, Olivier Chapelle

Patent number: 8005774Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses for generating relevance functions for ranking documents obtained in searches are provided. One or more features to be used as predictor variables in the construction of a relevance function are determined. The relevance function is parameterized by one or more coefficients. An ideal query error is defined that measures, for a given query, a difference between a ranking generated by the relevance function and a ranking based on a training set. According to a structured output learning framework, values for the coefficients of the relevance function are determined to substantially minimize an objective function that depends on a continuous upper bound of the defined ideal query error. The query error is determined using a structured output learning technique. The query error is defined as a maximum over a set of permutations.Type: GrantFiled: November 28, 2007Date of Patent: August 23, 2011Assignee: Yahoo! Inc.Inventor: Olivier Chapelle

One or more features to be used as predictor variables in the construction of a relevance function are determined. The relevance function is parameterized by one or more coefficients. A query error is defined that measures a difference between a relevance ranking generated by the relevance function and a training set relevance ranking based on a query and a set of scored documents associated with the query. The query error is a continuous function of the coefficients and aims at approximating errors measures commonly used in Information Retrieval. Values for the coefficients of the relevance function are determined that substantially minimize an objective function that depends on the defined query error.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2007Date of Patent: February 22, 2011Assignee: Yahoo!

Publication number: 20110029517Abstract: To estimate, or predict, the relevance of items, or documents, in a set of search results, relevance information is extracted from user click data, and relational information among the documents as manifested by an aggregation of user clicks is determined from the click data. A supervised approach uses judgment information, such as human judgment information, as part of the training data used to generate a relevance predictor model, which minimizes the inherent noisiness of the click data collected from a commercial search engine.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 31, 2009Publication date: February 3, 2011Inventors: Shihao Ji, Anlei Dong, Ciya Liao, Yi Chang, Zhaohui Zheng, Olivier Chapelle, Gordon Guo-Zheng Sun, Hongyuan Zha

Patent number: 7836000Abstract: An improved system and method is provided for training a multi-class support vector machine to select a common subset of features for classifying objects. A multi-class support vector machine generator may be provided for learning classification functions to classify sets of objects into classes and may include a sparse support vector machine modeling engine for training a multi-class support vector machine using scaling factors by simultaneously selecting a common subset of features iteratively for all classes from sets of features representing each of the classes. An objective function using scaling factors to ensure sparsity of features may be iteratively minimized, and features may be retained and added until a small set of features stabilizes. Alternatively, a common subset of features may be found by iteratively removing at least one feature simultaneously for all classes from an active set of features initialized to represent the entire set of training features.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2007Date of Patent: November 16, 2010Assignee: Yahoo!

Patent number: 7788193Abstract: Learning machines, such as support vector machines, are used to analyze datasets to recognize patterns within the dataset using kernels that are selected according to the nature of the data to be analyzed. Where the datasets possesses structural characteristics, locational kernels can be utilized to provide measures of similarity among data points within the dataset. The locational kernels are then combined to generate a decision function, or kernel, that can be used to analyze the dataset. Where an invariance transformation or noise is present, tangent vectors are defined to identify relationships between the invariance or noise and the data points. A covariance matrix is formed using the tangent vectors, then used in generation of the kernel.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2007Date of Patent: August 31, 2010Assignee: Health Discovery CorporationInventors: Peter L.

Publication number: 20090271339Abstract: Computer-implemented systems and methods, including servers, perform structure-based recognition processes that include matching and classification. Preprocessing subsystems and sub-methods embed a set of classes on which a loss function is defined into a semantic space and learn an input mapping between an input space and the semantic space.
