An algorithm that won $1M

Speakers: Pavel Kordík

In this presentation, you will be informed which algorithm won the $1M Netflix prize last year. Also, our current research in the areas of metalearning, neuroevolution, datamining and optimization will be shortly described. Finally, the FAKE GAME project (fakegame.sourceforge.net) aimed to automate the data preprocessing, mining and extraction processes by means of metalearning will be discussed in details. (Slides are partly in Czech.)
