"Pattern recognition techniques are concerned with the theory and algorithms of putting abstract objects, e.g., measurements made on physical objects, into categories. Typical...
Abstract. Sparse signal models learned from data are widely used in audio, image, and video restoration. They have recently been generalized to discriminative image understanding t...

A classical approach in multi-class pattern classification is the following. Estimate probability distributions that generated the observations for each label class, and then labe...
Abstract. Discriminative and generative methods provide two distinct approaches to machine learning classification. One advantage of generative approaches is that they naturally mo...
In this paper we show that generative models are competitive with and sometimes superior to discriminative models, when both kinds of models are allowed to learn structures that a...
