Pose pooling kernels for sub-category recognition
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...

Minimax-Optimal Rates For Sparse Additive Models Over Kernel Classes Via Convex Programming
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,...

Speaker recognition using multiple kernel learning based on conditional entropy minimization
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 Optimization in Discriminant Analysis
— 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...

Image partitioning with kernel mapping and graph cuts
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...

A theory of learning with similarity functions
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 ...

Learning the kernel matrix by maximizing a KFD-based class separability criterion
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...
