Recently, the margin criterion has been successfully used for parameter optimization in graphical models. We introduce maximum margin based structure learning for Bayesian network...
Semi-supervised word alignment aims to improve the accuracy of automatic word alignment by incorporating full or partial manual alignments. Motivated by standard active learning q...
We propose Laplace max-margin Markov networks (LapM3 N), and a general class of Bayesian M3 N (BM3 N) of which the LapM3 N is a special case with sparse structural bias, for robus...
—We present a discriminative part-based approach for human action recognition from video sequences using motion features. Our model is based on the recently proposed hidden condi...
This paper analyzes the potential advantages and theoretical challenges of “active learning” algorithms. Active learning involves sequential sampling procedures that use infor...
