We consider the problem of visual categorization with minimal supervision during training. We propose a partbased model that loosely captures structural information. We represent ...
—Coordinated checkpointing simplifies failure recovery and eliminates domino effects in case of failures by preserving a consistent global checkpoint on stable storage. However, ...
The problem of computing a maximum a posteriori (MAP) configuration is a central computational challenge associated with Markov random fields. There has been some focus on “tr...
