Learning Factor Graphs in Polynomial Time and Sample Complexity
We study the computational and sample complexity of parameter and structure learning in graphical models. Our main result shows that the class of factor graphs with bounded degree...

Projection density estimation under a m-sample semiparametric model
An m-sample semiparametric model in which the ratio of m - 1 probability density functions with respect to the mth is of a known parametric form without reference to any parametri...

Exploiting Inference for Approximate Parameter Learning in Discriminative Fields: An Empirical Study
Abstract. Estimation of parameters of random field models from labeled training data is crucial for their good performance in many image analysis applications. In this paper, we p...

Optimization with EM and Expectation-Conjugate-Gradient
We show a close relationship between the Expectation - Maximization (EM) algorithm and direct optimization algorithms such as gradientbased methods for parameter learning. We iden...

A similarity measure between unordered vector sets with application to image categorization
We present a novel approach to compute the similarity between two unordered variable-sized vector sets. To solve this problem, several authors have proposed to model each vector s...
