Efficient Kernel Machines Using the Improved Fast Gauss Transform
The computation and memory required for kernel machines with N training samples is at least O(N2 ). Such a complexity is significant even for moderate size problems and is prohibi...

Multi-agent Cooperation in Diverse Population Games
We consider multi-agent systems whose agents compete for resources by striving to be in the minority group. The agents adapt to the environment by reinforcement learning of the pr...

Generative Affine Localisation and Tracking
We present an extension to the Jojic and Frey (2001) layered sprite model which allows for layers to undergo affine transformations. This extension allows for affine object pose t...

The Variational Ising Classifier (VIC) Algorithm for Coherently Contaminated Data
There has been substantial progress in the past decade in the development of object classifiers for images, for example of faces, humans and vehicles. Here we address the problem ...
