The ability to normalize pose based on super-category landmarks can significantly improve models of individual categories when training data are limited. Previous methods have co...
Metric and kernel learning arise in several machine learning applications. However, most existing metric learning algorithms are limited to learning metrics over low-dimensional d...

Sparse additive models are families of d-variate functions with the additive decomposition f∗ = ∑j∈S f∗ j , where S is an unknown subset of cardinality s d. In this paper,...
This paper describes a novel approach to the semantic relation detection problem. Instead of relying only on the training instances for a new relation, we leverage the knowledge l...

In this paper, we propose a Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) framework for concealment of corrupted motion vectors in predictive video coding of packet video systems. The problem...

We applied a multiple kernel learning (MKL) method based on information-theoretic optimization to speaker recognition. Most of the kernel methods applied to speaker recognition sy...

— Kernel mapping is one of the most used approaches to intrinsically derive nonlinear classifiers. The idea is to use a kernel function which maps the original nonlinearly separ...
A novel multiregion graph cut image partitioning method combined with kernel mapping is presented. A kernel function transforms implicitly the image data into data of a higher dim...
Kernel functions have become an extremely popular tool in machine learning, with an attractive theory as well. This theory views a kernel as implicitly mapping data points into a ...
The advantage of a kernel method often depends critically on a proper choice of the kernel function. A promising approach is to learn the kernel from data automatically. In this p...
