Dimensionality Reduction and Principal Surfaces via Kernel Map Manifolds
We present a manifold learning approach to dimensionality reduction that explicitly models the manifold as a mapping from low to high dimensional space. The manifold is represen...

Selecting Models from Videos for Appearance-Based Face Recognition
In this paper, we propose an unsupervised approach to select representative face samples (models) from raw videos and build an appearance-based face recognition system. The approa...

Robust estimation of gaussian mixtures from noisy input data
We propose a variational bayes approach to the problem of robust estimation of gaussian mixtures from noisy input data. The proposed algorithm explicitly takes into account the un...

Laplacian Eigenmaps and Spectral Techniques for Embedding and Clustering
Drawing on the correspondence between the graph Laplacian, the Laplace-Beltrami operator on a manifold, and the connections to the heat equation, we propose a geometrically motiva...
