Univariate Polynomial Inference by Monte Carlo Message Length Approximation
We apply the Message from Monte Carlo (MMC) algorithm to inference of univariate polynomials. MMC is an algorithm for point estimation from a Bayesian posterior sample. It partiti...

Fast Human Pose Estimation using Appearance and Motion via Multi-Dimensional Boosting Regression
We address the problem of estimating human pose in video sequences, where rough location has been determined. We exploit both appearance and motion information by defining suitabl...
