We present a new approach, called local discriminant embedding (LDE), to manifold learning and pattern classification. In our framework, the neighbor and class relations of data a...
Pattern variation is a major factor that affects the performance of recognition systems. In this paper, a novel manifold tangent modeling method called Discriminant Additive Tange...
We consider the problem of dimensionality reduction, where given high-dimensional data we want to estimate two mappings: from high to low dimension (dimensionality reduction) and f...
Latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) and other related topic models are increasingly popular tools for summarization and manifold discovery in discrete data. However, LDA does not ca...
We present a new framework to represent and analyze dynamic facial motions using a decomposable generative model. In this paper, we consider facial expressions which lie on a one d...
