In this paper we propose a novel computational method to infer visual saliency in images. The method is based on the idea that salient objects should have local characteristics tha...
An efficient policy search algorithm should estimate the local gradient of the objective function, with respect to the policy parameters, from as few trials as possible. Whereas m...
The input to an algorithm that learns a binary classifier normally consists of two sets of examples, where one set consists of positive examples of the concept to be learned, and ...
We propose a new algorithm for learning kernels for variants of the Normalized Cuts (NCuts) objective – i.e., given a set of training examples with known partitions, how should ...
The Local Outlier Factor (LOF) is a very powerful anomaly detection method available in machine learning and classification. The algorithm defines the notion of local outlier in...
