Face age estimation using patch-based hidden Markov model supervectors
Recent studies in patch-based Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) approaches for face age estimation present promising results. We propose using a hidden Markov model (HMM) supervector t...

On-Line Search for Solving Markov Decision Processes via Heuristic Sampling
In the past, Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) have become a standard for solving problems of sequential decision under uncertainty. The usual request in this framework is the compu...

A Fast Analytical Algorithm for Solving Markov Decision Processes with Real-Valued Resources
Agents often have to construct plans that obey deadlines or, more generally, resource limits for real-valued resources whose consumption can only be characterized by probability d...

Inconsistent parameter estimation in Markov random fields: Benefits in the computation-limited setting
Consider the problem of joint parameter estimation and prediction in a Markov random field: i.e., the model parameters are estimated on the basis of an initial set of data, and th...

Detecting and Exploiting Symmetry in Discrete-state Markov Models
Dependable systems are usually designed with multiple instances of components or logical processes, and often possess symmetries that may be exploited in model-based evaluation. T...
