Abstract. In this paper we unify divergence minimization and statistical inference by means of convex duality. In the process of doing so, we prove that the dual of approximate max...
In this paper we extend a form of kernel ridge regression for data characterised by a heteroscedastic noise process (introduced in Foxall et al. [1]) in order to provide approxima...

Many visual search and matching systems represent images using sparse sets of "visual words": descriptors that have been quantized by assignment to the best-matching symb...
