In this work we present a new string similarity feature, the sparse spatial sample (SSS). An SSS is a set of short substrings at specific spatial displacements contained in the or...
Abstract— The paper presents an efficient construction algorithm for obtaining sparse kernel density estimates based on a regression approach that directly optimizes model gener...
This paper proposes a novel approach for directly tuning the gaussian kernel matrix for one class learning. The popular gaussian kernel includes a free parameter, σ, that requires...

We consider the problem of fitting a large-scale covariance matrix to multivariate Gaussian data in such a way that the inverse is sparse, thus providing model selection. Beginnin...

We address the problem of computing joint sparse representation of visual signal across multiple kernel-based representations. Such a problem arises naturally in supervised visual...
