A central issue in principal component analysis (PCA) is choosing the number of principal components to be retained. By interpreting PCA as density estimation, this paper shows ho...
The problem of determining the appropriate number of components is important in finite mixture modeling for pattern classification. This paper considers the application of an unsu...
We report an automatic feature discovery method that achieves results comparable to a manually chosen, larger feature set on a document image content extraction problem: the locat...
Unsupervised or Self-Organized learning algorithms have become very popular for discovery of significant patterns or features in the input data. The three prominent algorithms name...
In this work we propose a new supervised deformable model that generalizes the classical contour-based snake. This model is defined to deform in a feature space generated by a se...
