Jorge Santos, docente do Departamento de Matemática (DMA) e coordenador do Laboratório de Engenharia Matemática (LEMA), acaba de publicar a obra Minimum Error Entropy Classification.
Desenvolvido em coautoria com Joaquim Marques de Sá, Luís Silva e Luís Alexandre, o livro está integrado na coleção Studies in Computational Intelligence, da editora Springer.
MINIMUM ERROR ENTROPY CLASSIFICATION http://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-642-29029-9/page/1 «This book explains the minimum error entropy (MEE) concept applied to data classification machines. Discusses theoretical results, offers a clustering algorithm using a MEE-like concept, and includes tests, evaluation experiments and comparative applications».
No prefácio, Jose C. Principe, destaca a entrega e visão dos autores. «I will like to commend the authors for their hard work and vision because their hypothesis and results coalesced into a piece of focused and highly relevant material that will undoubtedly improve our understanding for the role of information theoretic descriptors in learning theory».
