Many visual search and matching systems represent images using sparse sets of "visual words": descriptors that have been quantized by assignment to the best-matching symb...
In this paper we introduce visual phrases, complex visual composites like “a person riding a horse”. Visual phrases often display significantly reduced visual complexity comp...
We consider a kernel-based approach to nonlinear classification that coordinates the generation of “synthetic” points (to be used in the kernel) with “chunking” (working wi...
Background: Cross-validation (CV) is an effective method for estimating the prediction error of a classifier. Some recent articles have proposed methods for optimizing classifiers...
—In this paper, we present an approach to nonlinear model reduction based on representing a nonlinear system with a piecewise-linear system and then reducing each of the pieces w...
