In the paper we present a generalized discriminative multiple instance learning algorithm (GD-MIL) for multimedia semantic concept detection. It combines the capability of the MIL...
Recently, the margin criterion has been successfully used for parameter optimization in graphical models. We introduce maximum margin based structure learning for Bayesian network...
