Palm lines are the most important features for palmprint recognition. They are best considered as typical multiscale features, where the principal lines can be represented at a la...
In this paper, we propose a novel supervised hierarchical sparse coding model based on local image descriptors for classification tasks. The supervised dictionary training is perf...
In high dimensional data sets not all dimensions contain an equal amount of information and most of the time global features are more important than local differences. This makes ...
Sparse coding--that is, modelling data vectors as sparse linear combinations of basis elements--is widely used in machine learning, neuroscience, signal processing, and statistics...

A dependent hierarchical beta process (dHBP) is developed as a prior for data that may be represented in terms of a sparse set of latent features (dictionary elements), with covar...
