COURSE GOALS: To gain a profound understanding of the theories, algorithms, and applications of the state-of-the-art of statistical pattern recognition, various mathematical approaches, and the ...

In the last few years, research in pattern recognition has seen a remarkable shift towards hybrid models that integrate classical statistical methods with state-of-the-art deep learning techniques.

However, the strict mathematical assumptions in Kleinberg [The Annals of Statistics 24 (1996) 2319-2349] are rarely met in practice. This paper provides an applicable way to realize the SD algorithm.

In this article we develop a model for estimating flight departure delay distributions required by air traffic congestion prediction models. We identify and study major factors that influence flight ...
