Online Linear Regression and Its Application to Model-Based Reinforcement Learning
We provide a provably efficient algorithm for learning Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) with continuous state and action spaces in the online setting. Specifically, we take a mo...

Bayesian Tangent Shape Model: Estimating Shape and Pose Parameters via Bayesian Inference
12 In this paper we study the problem of shape analysis and its application in locating facial feature points on frontal faces. We propose a Bayesian inference solution based on ta...

Perspective Symmetry Invariant and Its Applications
Face is a perceptually symmetric object; however, it often appears not so in captured image due to the rotation in depth within the 3D space. In this paper, we explore the invaria...

An analytical model for multi-tier internet services and its applications
- Since many Web applications employ a multi-tier architecture, in this paper, we focus on the problem of analytically modeling the behavior of such applications. We present a mode...
