We introduce a new type of graphical model called a `cumulative distribution network' (CDN), which expresses a joint cumulative distribution as a product of local functions. ...
Unsupervised categorization of images or image parts is often needed for image and video summarization or as a preprocessing step in supervised methods for classification, trackin...
In this paper we present a novel learning based method for restoring and recognizing images of digits that have been blurred using an unknown kernel. The novelty of our work is an...
