Abstract. This contribution proposes a compositional approach to visual object categorization of scenes. Compositions are learned from the Caltech 101 database1 intermediate abstra...
Kernel methods have been successfully applied to many machine learning problems. Nevertheless, since the performance of kernel methods depends heavily on the type of kernels being...

In multiple instance learning (MIL), how the instances determine the bag-labels is an essential issue, both algorithmically and intrinsically. In this paper, we show that the mech...
