—A novel framework is proposed for the design of cost-sensitive boosting algorithms. The framework is based on the identification of two necessary conditions for optimal cost-sen...
In this paper we propose a new method that addresses the problem of tracking the bitmap (silhouette) of an object in a video under very general conditions. We assume a general tar...
When training the parameters for a natural language system, one would prefer to minimize 1-best loss (error) on an evaluation set. Since the error surface for many natural languag...
This paper introduces a novel algorithm to approximate the matrix with minimum nuclear norm among all matrices obeying a set of convex constraints. This problem may be understood a...
This paper considers the design of an optimal joint source-channel coding system employing scalable wavelet-based source coders and unequal error protection for error-resilient tra...
