Independent Variable Group Analysis (IVGA) is a method for grouping dependent variables together while keeping mutually independent or weakly dependent variables in separate group...
It has been shown repeatedly that iterative relevance feedback is a very efficient solution for content-based image retrieval. However, no existing system scales gracefully to hu...
This paper copes with the approximate minimization of Markovian energy with pairwise interactions. We extend previous approaches that rely on graph-cuts and move making techniques...
In this paper, we address the issue of extracting contour of the object with a specific shape. A hierarchical graphical model is proposed to represent shape variations. A complex ...
Two notions of optimality have been explored in previous work on hierarchical reinforcement learning (HRL): hierarchical optimality, or the optimal policy in the space defined by ...
