Summary: We present a new heuristic feature-selection (FS) algorithm that integrates in a principled algorithmic framework the three key FS components: relevance, redundancy, and complementarity.Thus, we call it relevance, redundancy, and complementarity trade-off (RRCT).The association strength between each feature and the response and between fea
Instance-Level Image Translation With a Local Discriminator
Instance-level image translation aims to only translate instance of interest and can be operated more finely and flexibly than object-level and holistic-level image translation.However, current algorithms are not suitable to do it since they employ a holistic or object level’s discriminator that tends to change the whole image or all instanc
Theorizing race, marginalization, and language in the digital media
Digitization of the communication medium has transformed the mute, marginalized ‘audience’ into a heterogeneous and credible content ‘producer.’ Drawing on this dynamics and operation of the digital media, it has urged the need to re-theorize ‘marginalization’ and ‘race.’ Hence, this paper critiques the digital-media tool, blogs, us
RAPID MAPPING AND ASSESSMENT OF DAMAGES DUE TO TYPHOON RAI USING SENTINEL-1 SYNTHETIC APERTURE RADAR DATA
Typhoon Rai has recently affected central and southern parts of the Philippines.Based on the valuation of the country’s National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC), it is estimated that the typhoon has damaged 1,700 buildings, 2 million houses, and 10 million hectares of agricultural land in the affected locations.Given the e
