Expedition: A System for the Unsupervised Learning of a Hierarchy of Concepts

no code implementations17 Dec 2021 Omid Madani

With rudimentary segmentation and learning algorithms, the system is promising in that it acquires many concepts (tens of thousands in our small-scale experiments), and it learns to segment text well: when fed with English text with spaces removed, starting at the character level, much of what is learned respects word or phrase boundaries, and over time the average number of "bad" splits within segmentations, i. e. splits inside words, decreases as larger concepts are discovered and the system learns when to use them during segmentation.

Binomial Tails for Community Analysis

no code implementations17 Dec 2020 Omid Madani, Thanh Ngo, Weifei Zeng, Sai Ankith Averine, Sasidhar Evuru, Varun Malhotra, Shashidhar Gandham, Navindra Yadav

The binomial tail is simple and versatile, and we describe two other applications for community analysis: degree of community membership (which in turn yields group-scoring functions), and the discovery of significant edges in the community-induced graph.
