Discriminative feature weighting using MCE training for topic identification of spoken audio recordings
In this paper we investigate a discriminative approach to feature weighting for topic identification using minimum classification error (MCE) training. Our approach learns featu...

Mean-Shift Blob Tracking with Adaptive Feature Selection and Scale Adaptation
When the appearances of the tracked object and surrounding background change during tracking, fixed feature space tends to cause tracking failure. To address this problem, we prop...

Variational Bayes for Continuous Hidden Markov Models and Its Application to Active Learning
In this paper we present a variational Bayes (VB) framework for learning continuous hidden Markov models (CHMMs), and we examine the VB framework within active learning. Unlike a ...

Variational Graph Embedding for Globally and Locally Consistent Feature Extraction
Existing feature extraction methods explore either global statistical or local geometric information underlying the data. In this paper, we propose a general framework to learn fea...
