    Clustering with finite data from semi-parametric mixture distributions 
    Wang, Yong; Witten, Ian H. (1999)
    Existing clustering methods for the semi-parametric mixture distribution perform well as the volume of data increases. However, they all suffer from a serious drawback in finite-data situations: small outlying groups of ...

    Induction of model trees for predicting continuous classes 
    Wang, Yong; Witten, Ian H. (1996)
    Many problems encountered when applying machine learning in practice involve predicting a "class" that takes on a continuous numeric value, yet few machine learning schemes are able to do this. This paper describes a ...

    Modeling for optimal probability prediction 
    Wang, Yong; Witten, Ian H. (Morgan Kaufmann Publishers Inc., 2002)
    We present a general modelling method for optimal probability prediction over future observations, in which model dimensionality is determined as a natural by-product. This new method yields several estimators, and we ...

    Pace Regression 
    Wang, Yong; Witten, Ian H. (1999)
    This paper articulates a new method of linear regression, “pace regression”, that addresses many drawbacks of standard regression reported in the literature-particularly the subset selection problem. Pace regression improves ...

    Using model trees for classification 
    Frank, Eibe; Wang, Yong; Inglis, Stuart J.; Holmes, Geoffrey; Witten, Ian H. (1997)
    Model trees, which are a type of decision tree with linear regression functions at the leaves, form the basis of a recent successful technique for predicting continuous numeric values. They can be applied to classification ...
