Cluster analysis of ranking data, which occurs in consumer questionnaires, voting forms or other inquiries of preferences, attempts to identify typical groups of rank choices. Emp...
This paper addresses the problem of developing appropriate features for use in direct modeling approaches to speech recognition, such as those based on Maximum Entropy models or S...
We introduce novel discriminative learning algorithms for dynamical systems. Models such as Conditional Random Fields or Maximum Entropy Markov Models outperform the generative Hi...
We formulate a model for probability distributions on image spaces. We show that any distribution of images can be factored exactly into conditional distributions of feature vecto...
Outliers due to occlusions and contrast and offset signal deviations notably hinder recognition and retrieval of facial images. We propose a new maximum likelihood matching score ...
