Meta-heuristics such as simulated annealing, genetic algorithms and tabu search have been successfully applied to many difficult optimization problems for which no satisfactory pro...
Efficient exploitation of the aggregate resources available to a researcher is a challenging and real problem. The challenge becomes all the greater when researchers who collaborat...
We present a novel learning framework for pipeline models aimed at improving the communication between consecutive stages in a pipeline. Our method exploits the confidence scores ...
Virtual evidence (VE), first introduced by (Pearl, 1988), provides a convenient way of incorporating prior knowledge into Bayesian networks. This work generalizes the use of VE to...
This paper introduces a novel kernel-based method for template tracking in video sequences. The method is derived for a general warping transformation, and its application to affi...
