The product of experts learning procedure [1] can discover a set of stochastic binary features that constitute a nonlinear generative model of handwritten images of digits. The qua...
Within the field of pattern classification, the Fisher kernel is a powerful framework which combines the strengths of generative and discriminative approaches. The idea is to ch...
Abstract. Modeling the statistical structure of natural images is interesting for reasons related to neuroscience as well as engineering. Currently, this modeling relies heavily on...
Abstract. Rule induction has attracted a great deal of attention in Machine Learning and Data Mining. However, generating rules is not an end in itself because their applicability ...
Abstract. In this paper, we propose a new approach to learn structured visual compound models from shape-based feature descriptions. We use captioned text in order to drive the pro...
