This paper explores the use of the homotopy method for training a semi-supervised Hidden Markov Model (HMM) used for sequence labeling. We provide a novel polynomial-time algorith...
We present in this paper a combination of Machine Learning based Information Retrieval (IR) techniques and stochastic language modelling in a hierarchical system that extracts sur...
It is important yet hard to identify navigational queries in Web search due to a lack of sufficient information in Web queries, which are typically very short. In this paper we st...
In this paper, we deal with the estimation of body and head poses (i.e orientations) in surveillance videos, and we make three main contributions. First, we address this issue as ...
