Exploiting Inference for Approximate Parameter Learning in Discriminative Fields: An Empirical Study
Abstract. Estimation of parameters of random field models from labeled training data is crucial for their good performance in many image analysis applications. In this paper, we p...

Bayes Machines for binary classification
In this work we propose an approach to binary classification based on an extension of Bayes Point Machines. Particularly, we take into account the whole set of hypotheses that are...
