Gain control by divisive inhibition, a.k.a. divisive normalization, has been proposed to be a general mechanism throughout the visual cortex. We explore in this study the statisti...
We extend qualitative reasoning with estimations of the relative likelihoods of the pos sible qualitative behaviors . We estimate the likelihoods by viewing the dynamics o f a sys...
Coordination within decentralized agent groups frequently requires reaching global consensus, but typical hierarchical approaches to reaching such decisions can be complex, slow, ...
In this paper, a multiobjective (MO) learning approach to image feature extraction is described, where Pareto-optimal interest point (IP) detectors are synthesized using genetic p...
The vast user-provided image tags on the popular photo sharing websites may greatly facilitate image retrieval and management. However, these tags are often imprecise and/or incom...
