A serious drawback of kernel methods, and Support Vector Machines (SVM) in particular, is the difficulty in choosing a suitable kernel function for a given dataset. One of the appr...

For supervised and unsupervised learning, positive definite kernels allow to use large and potentially infinite dimensional feature spaces with a computational cost that only depe...
Abstract We review the evolution of the nonparametric regression modeling in imaging from the local Nadaraya-Watson kernel estimate to the nonlocal means and further to transform-d...

A new class of kernels for object recognition based on local image feature representations are introduced in this paper. These kernels satisfy the Mercer condition and incorporate...
Kernel methods have been successfully applied to many machine learning problems. Nevertheless, since the performance of kernel methods depends heavily on the type of kernels being...
