Many current face recognition algorithms perform badly when the lighting or pose of the probe and gallery images differ. In this paper we present a novel algorithm designed for th...
Algebraic randomization techniques can be applied to hybrid symbolic-numeric algorithms. Here we consider the problem of interpolating a sparse rational function from noisy values...
A human annotator can provide hints to a machine learner by highlighting contextual "rationales" for each of his or her annotations (Zaidan et al., 2007). How can one ex...
Retrospective news event detection (RED) is defined as the discovery of previously unidentified events in historical news corpus. Although both the contents and time information...
We study the challenging problem of maneuvering object tracking with unknown dynamics, i.e., forces or torque. We investigate the underlying causes of object kinematics, and propo...
