... We are exploring the use of unlabeled data for supervised classification and for semi-supervised clustering. Current automated classification methods rely heavily on supervised learning algorithms that require training data sets containing large amounts of previously classified, or labeled, data. ... Our project relies on statistical learning to combine labeled and unlabeled data in new ways. ... One set, , consists of the labeled data where is a feature vector and is a class label. ...

... The most powerful and widely used methods to calculate the scattering matrix of a fractal cluster are based on the coupled dipoles methods (e.g. the Discrete Dipole Approximation, DDA) and the theory of light scattering by a cluster of spherical particles [2-4]. ... At present the procedure of calculation of the scattering matrix is well developed for both an oriented cluster of spherical particles and for chaotically oriented clusters of such particles [4]. ...

... Structure of Data . ... Catalog . ... In SAI OCL Catalog, we introduce our work on investigation of the Milky Way system of open star clusters. The main goal of our study is a search for new clusters using huge surveys. 168 new clusters have been already discovered by us using J,H,Ks data from 2MASS point source catalog. ... For 141 new clusters, we found their physical parameters using J,H,Ks data from 2MASS catalog and, for a number of clusters, our UBVRI CCD observational magnitudes. ...

... HST . ... Lensing Models . ... In order to interpret many of the properties of background lensed galaxies, reliable models of the lensing maps for each cluster are required. Preliminary models for each of the six Frontier Fields clusters have been provided by five independent groups prior to the HST Frontier Fields observing campaign in order to facilitate rapid analysis of the FF data by all members of the community. ... The various groups model the cluster mass distribution in different ways. ...

. N OTE: . Only clusters with R<60 kpc were used to compute the spatial parameters and metallicity gradients for all subsystems except the corona. The numbers in parantheses give the number of clusters for which the corresponding parameter is known. The X O scale length of the old halo is strongly distorted by the observed asymmetry of the distribution of the corresponding clusters projected onto the XY plane ( Fig. 4А ) . discussion in the text | previous table .
