Soft vector quantization and the EM algorithm
The relation between hard c-means (HCM), fuzzy c-means (FCM), fuzzy learning vector quantization (FLVQ), soft competition scheme (SCS) of Yair et al. (1992) and probabilistic Gaus...

Priors for People Tracking from Small Training Sets
We advocate the use of Scaled Gaussian Process Latent Variable Models (SGPLVM) to learn prior models of 3D human pose for 3D people tracking. The SGPLVM simultaneously optimizes a...

Using Local Trajectory Optimizers to Speed Up Global Optimization in Dynamic Programming
Dynamic programming provides a methodology to develop planners and controllers for nonlinear systems. However, general dynamic programming is computationally intractable. We have ...

An approximate Minimum MOSPA estimator
Optimizing over a variant of the Mean Optimal Subpattern Assignment (MOSPA) metric is equivalent to optimizing over the track accuracy statistic often used in target tracking benc...

Distributed Covariance Estimation in Gaussian Graphical Models
—We consider distributed estimation of the inverse covariance matrix in Gaussian graphical models. These models factorize the multivariate distribution and allow for efficient d...
