Subspace-Based Face Recognition in Analog VLSI
We describe an analog-VLSI neural network for face recognition based on subspace methods. The system uses a dimensionality-reduction network whose coefficients can be either progr...

Inferring Elapsed Time from Stochastic Neural Processes
Many perceptual processes and neural computations, such as speech recognition, motor control and learning, depend on the ability to measure and mark the passage of time. However, ...

What makes some POMDP problems easy to approximate?
Point-based algorithms have been surprisingly successful in computing approximately optimal solutions for partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) in high dimension...

Modelling motion primitives and their timing in biologically executed movements
Biological movement is built up of sub-blocks or motion primitives. Such primitives provide a compact representation of movement which is also desirable in robotic control applica...

Discriminative Batch Mode Active Learning
Active learning sequentially selects unlabeled instances to label with the goal of reducing the effort needed to learn a good classifier. Most previous studies in active learning...

How SVMs can estimate quantiles and the median
We investigate quantile regression based on the pinball loss and the ǫ-insensitive loss. For the pinball loss a condition on the data-generating distribution P is given that ensu...

EEG-Based Brain-Computer Interaction: Improved Accuracy by Automatic Single-Trial Error Detection
Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), as any other interaction modality based on physiological signals and body channels (e.g., muscular activity, speech and gestures), are prone to e...
