—The problem of automatic and optimal design of embedded object detector cascades is considered. Two main challenges are identified: optimization of the cascade configuration and...
Object search in a visual scene is a highly challenging and computationally intensive task. Most of the current object detection techniques extract features from images for classi...
—Inferring latent structures from observations helps to model and possibly also understand underlying data generating processes. A rich class of latent structures are the latent ...
Algorithms based on following local gradient information are surprisingly effective for certain classes of constraint satisfaction problems. Unfortunately, previous local search a...
Many semi-supervised learning algorithms only
deal with binary classification. Their extension to the
multi-class problem is usually obtained by repeatedly
solving a set of bina...
