Learning patterns of human behavior from sensor data is extremely important for high-level activity inference. We show how to extract a person’s activities and significant plac...
Computational models of grounded language learning have been based on the premise that words and concepts are learned simultaneously. Given the mounting cognitive evidence for conc...
We present a novel method for inferring three-dimensional shape from a collection of defocused images. It is based on the observation that defocused images are the null-space of ce...
This paper presents an approach to automatically optimizing the retrieval quality of search engines using clickthrough data. Intuitively, a good information retrieval system shoul...
Ordered lists of objects are widely used as representational forms. Such ordered objects include Web search results and best-seller lists. Techniques for processing such ordinal d...
