The representation of acoustic signals at the cochlear nerve must serve a wide range of auditory tasks that require exquisite sensitivity in both time and frequency. Lewicki (2002...
—In increasingly many cases of interest in computer vision and pattern recognition, one is often confronted with the situation where data size is very large. Usually, the labels ...
Recently, a number of researchers have proposed spectral algorithms for learning models of dynamical systems—for example, Hidden Markov Models (HMMs), Partially Observable Marko...
Intrinsic plasticity (IP) refers to a neuron’s ability to regulate its firing activity by adapting its intrinsic excitability. Previously, we showed that model neurons combinin...
This paper presents a statistical model for textures that uses a non-negative decomposition on a set of local atoms learned from an exemplar. This model is described by the varianc...
