We propose a new discriminative framework, namely Hidden Dynamic Conditional Random Fields (HDCRFs), for building probabilistic models which can capture both internal and external...
Learning a sequence classifier means learning to predict a sequence of output tags based on a set of input data items. For example, recognizing that a handwritten word is "ca...
We present the first PAC bounds for learning parameters of Conditional Random Fields [12] with general structures over discrete and real-valued variables. Our bounds apply to com...
We address the issue of classifying complex data. We focus on three main sources of complexity, namely, the high dimensionality of the observed data, the dependencies between these...
The notion of using context information for solving highlevel vision problems has been increasingly realized in the field. However, how to learn an effective and efficient context...
