Top-down visual saliency facilities object localization by providing a discriminative representation of target objects and a probability map for reducing the search space. In this...
The stochastic discrimination (SD) theory considers learning as building models of uniform coverage over data distributions. Despite successful trials of the derived SD method in s...
We present a novel discriminative-generative hybrid approach in this paper, with emphasis on application in multiview object detection. Our method includes a novel generative mode...
Generative kernels represent theoretically grounded tools able to increase the capabilities of generative classification through a discriminative setting. Fisher Kernel is the fi...

A human annotator can provide hints to a machine learner by highlighting contextual "rationales" for each of his or her annotations (Zaidan et al., 2007). How can one ex...
