We consider the problem of learning mixtures of distributions via spectral methods and derive a tight characterization of when such methods are useful. Specifically, given a mixt...
Abstract. Visual dictionary learning and base (binary) classifier training are two basic problems for the recently most popular image categorization framework, which is based on t...
This paper considers the problem of monocular human body tracking using learned models. We propose to learn the joint probability distribution of appearance and body pose using a m...
