The required amount of labeled training data for object detection and classification is a major drawback of current methods. Combining labeled and unlabeled data via semisupervise...
In this paper we present a novel boosting algorithm for supervised learning that incorporates invariance to data transformations and has high generalization capabilities. While on...
We examined the effectiveness of using Haar features and the Adaboost boosting algorithm for FACS action unit (AU) recognition. We evaluated both recognition accuracy and processi...
We present a new class of models for high-dimensional nonparametric regression and classification called sparse additive models (SpAM). Our methods combine ideas from sparse line...
