Evolving prediction weights using evolution strategy
The evolution strategy is one of the strongest evolutionary algorithms for optimizing real-value vectors. In this paper, we study how to use it for the evolution of prediction wei...

2D/3D rotation-invariant detection using equivariant filters and kernel weighted mapping
In many vision problems, rotation-invariant analysis is necessary or preferred. Popular solutions are mainly based on pose normalization or brute-force learning, neglecting the in...

Learning Mixtures of Product Distributions Using Correlations and Independence
We study the problem of learning mixtures of distributions, a natural formalization of clustering. A mixture of distributions is a collection of distributions D = {D1, . . . DT },...

Back Propagation is Sensitive to Initial Conditions
This paper explores the effect of initial weight selection on feed-forward networks learning simple functions with the back-propagation technique. We first demonstrate, through th...
