Belief propagation (BP) has become widely used for low-level vision problems and various inference techniques have been proposed for loopy graphs. These methods typically rely on a...

Machine Learning systems are often distinguished according to the kind of representation they use, which can be either propositional or first-order logic. The framework working wi...

We discuss properties of high order neurons in competitive learning. In such neurons, geometric shapes replace the role of classic `point' neurons in neural networks. Complex ...
In this paper the notion of a partial-order plan is extended to task-hierarchies. We introduce the concept of a partial-order taskhierarchy that decomposes a problem using multi-ta...
The kernel function plays a central role in kernel methods. Most existing methods can only adapt the kernel parameters or the kernel matrix based on empirical data. Recently, Ong e...
