On the Objective and Feature Weights of Minkowski Weighted k-Means

arXiv:2603.25958v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The Minkowski weighted k-means (mwk-means) algorithm extends classical k-means by incorporating feature weights and a Minkowski distance. Despite its empirical success, its theoretical properties remain insufficiently understood. We show that the mwk-means objective can be…

Nonmyopic Global Optimisation via Approximate Dynamic Programming

arXiv:2412.04882v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Global optimisation to optimise expensive-to-evaluate black-box functions without gradient information. Bayesian optimisation, one of the most well-known techniques, typically employs Gaussian processes as surrogate models, leveraging their probabilistic nature to balance exploration and exploitation. However,…

Machine Learning Transferability for Malware Detection

arXiv:2603.26632v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Malware continues to be a predominant operational risk for organizations, especially when obfuscation techniques are used to evade detection. Despite the ongoing efforts in the development of Machine Learning (ML) detection approaches, there is still…
