Schema mapping algorithms rely on value correspondences ? i.e., correspondences among semantically related attributes ? to produce complex transformations among data sources. Thes...
Multidimensional Morphable Model is a powerful model to analyze and synthesize human faces. However, the stochastic gradient descent algorithm adopted to match the Morphable Model...
Density estimation for observational data plays an integral role in a broad spectrum of applications, e.g. statistical data analysis and information-theoretic image registration. ...
In this paper we introduce a new underlying probabilistic model for principal component analysis (PCA). Our formulation interprets PCA as a particular Gaussian process prior on a ...
In this paper, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of partially-dependent functional decomposition and develop new algorithms to compute such decomposi...
