Unsupervised learning algorithms aim to discover the structure hidden in the data, and to learn representations that are more suitable as input to a supervised machine than the ra...
This paper introduces a novel algorithm for the nonnegative matrix factorization and completion problem, which aims to find nonnegative matrices X and Y from a subset of entries o...
Log-linear and maximum-margin models are two commonly-used methods in supervised machine learning, and are frequently used in structured prediction problems. Efficient learning of...

Efficient and accurate fitting of Active Appearance Models (AAM) is a key requirement for many applications. The most efficient fitting algorithm today is Inverse Compositiona...
We present an approach for merging message streams from producers distributed over a network, using a deterministic algorithm that is independent of any nondeterminism of the syst...
