We develop a high dimensional nonparametric classification method named sparse additive machine (SAM), which can be viewed as a functional version of support vector machine (SVM)...
— In the context of Independent Component Analysis (ICA), we propose a simple method for online estimation of activation functions in order to blindly separate instantaneous mixt...
In this paper, we propose a new semi-supervised training method for Gaussian Mixture Models. We add a conditional entropy minimizer to the maximum mutual information criteria, whi...
— This paper presents Natural Evolution Strategies (NES), a novel algorithm for performing real-valued ‘black box’ function optimization: optimizing an unknown objective func...
Abstract--Smooth surface extraction using partial differential equations (PDEs) is a well-known and widely used technique for visualizing volume data. Existing approaches operate o...
