A Two-Layer Model of Natural Stimuli Estimated with Score Matching
We consider a hierarchical two-layer model of natural signals in which both layers are learned from the data. Estimation is accomplished by Score Matching, a recently proposed est...

A Two-Layer ICA-Like Model Estimated by Score Matching
Abstract. Capturing regularities in high-dimensional data is an important problem in machine learning and signal processing. Here we present a statistical model that learns a nonli...

Some extensions of score matching
Many probabilistic models are only defined up to a normalization constant. This makes maximum likelihood estimation of the model parameters very difficult. Typically, one then h...

A Principled Approach to Score Level Fusion in Multimodal Biometric Systems
A multimodal biometric system integrates information from multiple biometric sources to compensate for the limitations in performance of each individual biometric system. We propos...

On using error bounds to optimize cost-sensitive multimodal biometric authentication
While using more biometric traits in multimodal biometric fusion can effectively increase the system robustness, often, the cost associated to adding additional systems is not con...
