: We propose a new nonparametric family of oscillation heuristics for improving linear classifiers in the two-group discriminant problem. The heuristics are motivated by the intuit...
When linear support vector machines (SVMs) are applied to multi-class text categorization in industry, the size of the linear SVM model is very large, usually greater than several...
We introduce confidence-weighted linear classifiers, which add parameter confidence information to linear classifiers. Online learners in this setting update both classifier param...
In this paper we discuss object detection when only a small number of training examples are given. Specifically, we show how to incorporate a simple prior on the distribution of n...
Local Binary Pattern (LBP) histograms have attained much attention in face image analysis. They have been successfully used in face detection, recognition, verification, facial ex...
