Face Localization via Hierarchical CONDENSATION with Fisher Boosting Feature Selection
We formulate face localization as a Maximum A Posteriori Probability(MAP) problem of finding the best estimation of human face configuration in a given image. The a prior distribu...

Statistical region-based active contours with exponential family observations
In this paper, we focus on statistical region-based active contour models where image features (e.g. intensity) are random variables whose distribution belongs to some parametric ...

Maximum Entropy Markov Models for Information Extraction and Segmentation
Hidden Markov models (HMMs) are a powerful probabilistic tool for modeling sequential data, and have been applied with success to many text-related tasks, such as part-of-speech t...

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...

Decision Making with Side Information and Unbounded Loss Functions
We consider the problem of decision-making with side information and unbounded loss functions. Inspired by probably approximately correct learning model, we use a slightly differe...
