We present a new approach, called local discriminant embedding (LDE), to manifold learning and pattern classification. In our framework, the neighbor and class relations of data a...
Manifold learning methods are promising data analysis tools. However, if we locate a new test sample on the manifold, we have to find its embedding by making use of the learned e...
We investigate how to learn a kernel matrix for high dimensional data that lies on or near a low dimensional manifold. Noting that the kernel matrix implicitly maps the data into ...
Abstract. We introduce a non-linear shape prior for the deformable model framework that we learn from a set of shape samples using recent manifold learning techniques. We model a c...
We present an approach to recognizing faces with varying appearances which also considers the relative probability of occurrence for each appearance. We propose and demonstrate ex...
