This paper deals with the adaptive variance scaling issue in continuous Estimation of Distribution Algorithms. A phenomenon is discovered that current adaptive variance scaling me...
We propose a new method to measure “visualness” of concepts, that is, what extent concepts have visual characteristics. To know which concept has visually discriminative power...
Abstract. We consider the problem of estimating an unknown probability distribution from samples using the principle of maximum entropy (maxent). To alleviate overfitting with a v...
This paper collects together a miscellany of results originally motivated by the analysis of the generalization performance of the “maximum-margin” algorithm due to Vapnik and...

Computation of good viewpoints is important in several fields: computational geometry, visual servoing, robot motion, graph drawing, etc. In addition, selection of good views is r...
