Variational inference methods, including mean field methods and loopy belief propagation, have been widely used for approximate probabilistic inference in graphical models. While ...
We propose a novel approach to crosslingual language model (LM) adaptation based on bilingual Latent Semantic Analysis (bLSA). A bLSA model is introduced which enables latent topi...
The bag-of-words (BoW) model treats images as an unordered set of local regions and represents them by visual word histograms. Implicitly, regions are assumed to be identically an...

In this paper, the use of closed-form expressions is compared to the BIC approximation, with respect to speaker clustering. We first show that the particular BIC setting which is...
Many computer vision tasks may be expressed as the problem of learning a mapping between image space and a parameter space. For example, in human body pose estimation, recent rese...
