Abstract. The Perceptron algorithm, despite its simplicity, often performs well in online classification tasks. The Perceptron becomes especially effective when it is used in conju...
—In solving complex visual learning tasks, adopting multiple descriptors to more precisely characterize the data has been a feasible way for improving performance. The resulting ...
The kernel-parameter is one of the few tunable parameters in Support Vector machines, controlling the complexity of the resulting hypothesis. Its choice amounts to model selection...
