We wish to increase the power of an arbitrary algorithm designed for non-degenerate input, by allowing it to execute on all inputs. We concentrate on in nitesimal symbolic perturba...
Generalized additive models (GAM) for modelling nonlinear effects of continuous covariates are now well established tools for the applied statistician. In this paper we develop Ba...
Motion-based face recognition is a young research topic, inspired mainly by psychological studies on motionbased perception of human faces. Unlike its close relative, appearance-b...
ngly better objective function value until an optimal solution is reached. From an abstract point of view, an augmentation problem is solved in each iteration. That is, given a fea...
In recent work nonlinear subdivision schemes which operate on manifold-valued data have been successfully analyzed with the aid of so-called proximity conditions bounding the diffe...
