Education and Training for Catalogers and Classifiers discusses the education of librarians, particularly the teaching of cataloging as part of that education. It argues that relevant, high quality, library education and on-the-job training programs are necessary in preparing librarians to meet the challenges of understanding the issues of bibliographic control and relating a library’s catalog to regional, national, and international bibliographic databases.

A unified, coherent, and expansive treatment of current classifier ensemble methods Mail sorting, medical test reading, military target recognition, signature verification, meteorological forecast, DNA matching, fingerprint recognition. These are just a few of the areas requiring reliable, precise pattern recognition. Although in the past, pattern recognition has focused on designing single classifiers, recently the focus has been on combining several classifiers and getting a consensus of results for greater accuracy. This interest in combining classifiers has grown astronomically in

The concept of large margins is a unifying principle for the analysis of many different approaches to the classification of data from examples, including boosting, mathematical programming, neural networks, and support vector machines. The fact that it is the margin, or confidence level, of a classification--that is, a scale parameter--rather than a raw training error that matters has become a key tool for dealing with classifiers. This book shows how this idea applies to both the theoretical analysis and the design of algorithms. The book provides an overview of recent developments in larg

Linear classifiers in kernel spaces have emerged as a major topic within the field of machine learning. The kernel technique takes the linear classifier--a limited, but well-established and comprehensively studied model--and extends its applicability to a wide range of nonlinear pattern-recognition tasks such as natural language processing, machine vision, and biological sequence analysis. This book provides the first comprehensive overview of both the theory and algorithms of kernel classifiers, including the most recent developments. It begins by describing the major algorithmic advances: ke

The book is about the numeral classifier system and the acquisition of Japanese classifiers by Japanese children. It consists of two parts. First, it provides a general typological characterization of numeral classifier phrases and discusses problems in determining what constitutes the nature of classifiers. It also discusses the semantic properties of numeral classifiers based on an analysis of four languages from four different language families. Second, it examines the acquisitions of Japanese numeral classifiers by Japanese preschool children, ages 3 to 6, with a primary emphasis on the de

Almost all languages have some grammatical means for categorizing nouns. This book provides a comprehensive and original analysis of noun categorization devices all over the world. It will interest typologists, those working in the fields of morphosyntactic variation and lexical semantics, as well as anthropologists and all other scholars interested in the mechanisms of human cognition.
