Linear and nonlinear generative probabilistic class models for shape contours
We introduce a robust probabilistic approach to modeling shape contours based on a lowdimensional, nonlinear latent variable model. In contrast to existing techniques that use obj...

Harmonic mixtures: combining mixture models and graph-based methods for inductive and scalable semi-supervised learning
Graph-based methods for semi-supervised learning have recently been shown to be promising for combining labeled and unlabeled data in classification problems. However, inference f...

Tracking displacements of intracellular organelles in response to nanomechanical forces
The living cell is under constant influence of mechanical forces from its environment. These forces affect many aspects of the cell's behaviour, including morphology, growth,...

A tight bound on approximating arbitrary metrics by tree metrics
In this paper, we show that any n point metric space can be embedded into a distribution over dominating tree metrics such that the expected stretch of any edge is O(log n). This ...

Working with robots and objects: revisiting deictic reference for achieving spatial common ground
Robust joint visual attention is necessary for achieving a common frame of reference between humans and robots interacting multimodally in order to work together on realworld spat...
