AdaBoost and support vector machines (SVM) algorithms are commonly used in the field of object recognition. As classifiers, their classification performance is sensitive to affect...
Discriminative learning is challenging when examples are sets of features, and the sets vary in cardinality and lack any sort of meaningful ordering. Kernel-based classification m...
A novel kernel discriminant transformation (KDT) algorithm based on the concept of canonical differences is presented for automatic face recognition applications. For each individu...
