Seminar: Information Theory

In this semniar, I read the following papers or articles.
  • Claude E. Shannon's Information Theory Paper
    C. E. Shannon, "A mathematical theory of communication", Bell System Technical Journal, vol. 27, pp. 379-423 and 623-656, July and October, 1948.
  • A Lecture Notes for Information Theory.
  • A Tutorial for Memory Based Learning which use information theory to weigh each feature.
    Walter Daelemans et al., TiMBL: Tilburg Memory Based Learner V2.0 Reference Guide, ILK Technical Report- ILK 99-01.
  • Maximum Entropy Methodology Paper
    A. Berger, S. A. Della Pietra, and V. J. Della Pietra, "A maximum entropy approach to natural language processing", Computational Linguistics, vol. 22, pp. 39-71, 1996. Presentation
  • Quinlan's ID3 Algorithm for building of Decision Tree.
    Quinlan, J.R., "Induction of Decision Trees", Machine Learning, 1986, No.1, pp.81-106.
  • Quinlan's C4.5 Algorithm which is an extension to ID3.for building of Decision Tree.
    Quinlan,J.R.: C4.5: Programs for Machine Learning Morgan Kauffman, 1993.
    (An tutorial for ID3 and C4.5)
  • Information Network which is similar to but different from ID3 algorithm.
    M. Last, O. Maimon, ¡°A compact and accurate model for classification¡±, IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering, Volume 16, Issue 2 , Pages: 203 ¨C 215, 2004.
