With the increased availability of data for complex domains, it is desirable to learn Bayesian network structures that are sufficiently expressive for generalization while at the ...
Handshape is a key linguistic component of signs, and thus, handshape recognition is essential to algorithms for sign language recognition and retrieval. In this work, linguistic ...

Many classes of images have the characteristics of sparse structuring of statistical dependency and the presence of conditional independencies among various groups of variables. S...
This paper studies two types of spatial relationships that can be learned from training examples for object recognition. The first one employs deformable relationships between obj...
