We present a new semi-supervised training procedure for conditional random fields (CRFs) that can be used to train sequence segmentors and labelers from a combination of labeled a...

In supervised learning, we commonly assume that training and test data are sampled from the same distribution. However, this assumption can be violated in practice and then standa...
Image auto-annotation is an important open problem in
computer vision. For this task we propose TagProp, a discriminatively
trained nearest neighbor model. Tags of test
images a...

One of the difficult problems of acoustic modeling for Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) is how to adequately model the wide variety of acoustic conditions which may be present i...
Most machine learning algorithms are lazy: they extract from the training set the minimum information needed to predict its labels. Unfortunately, this often leads to models that ...
