We present an emotion recognition system based on a probabilistic approach to adaptive processing of Facial Emotion Tree Structures (FETS). FETS are made up of localized Gabor fea...
Background: False discovery rate (FDR) methods play an important role in analyzing highdimensional data. There are two types of FDR, tail area-based FDR and local FDR, as well as ...
This research describes a probabilistic approach for developing predictive models of how students learn problem-solving skills in general qualitative chemistry. The goal is to use ...
