Recently SVMs using spatial pyramid matching (SPM)
kernel have been highly successful in image classification.
Despite its popularity, these nonlinear SVMs have a complexity

The traditional SPM approach based on bag-of-features (BoF) must use nonlinear classifiers to achieve good image classification performance. This paper presents a simple but effec...
An unsupervised classification algorithm is derived by modeling observed data as a mixture of several mutually exclusive classes that are each described by linear combinations of i...
Sparse coding of sensory data has recently attracted notable attention in research of learning useful features from the unlabeled data. Empirical studies show that mapping the data...
Sparse coding--that is, modelling data vectors as sparse linear combinations of basis elements--is widely used in machine learning, neuroscience, signal processing, and statistics...
