— This work addresses the problem of selecting a subset of basis functions for a model linear in the parameters for regression tasks. Basis functions from a set of candidates are...
The Total Least Squares method is generalized in the context of the functional linear model. A smoothing splines estimator of the functional coefficient of the model is first prop...
We introduce a class of nonstationary covariance functions for Gaussian process (GP) regression. Nonstationary covariance functions allow the model to adapt to functions whose smo...
With traditional Question Answering (QA) systems having reached nearly satisfactory performance, an emerging challenge is the development of successful Interactive Question Answeri...

Pictorial structure (PS) models are extensively used for part-based recognition of scenes, people, animals and multi-part objects. To achieve tractability, the structure and param...
