Semi-Supervised Learning Using Gaussian Fields and Harmonic Functions
An approach to semi-supervised learning is proposed that is based on a Gaussian random field model. Labeled and unlabeled data are represented as vertices in a weighted graph, wit...

Gesture recognition using a probabilistic framework for pose matching
This paper presents an approach for view-based recognition of gestures. The approach is based on representing each gesture as a sequence of learned body poses. The gestures are re...

A Hardware-Independent Fast Logarithm Approximation with Adjustable Accuracy
Many multimedia applications rely on the computation of logarithms, for example, when estimating log-likelihoods for Gaussian Mixture Models. Knowing of the demand to compute loga...
