Let us consider an ordered vector A[1 : n]. If the cost of testing each position is similar, then the standard binary search is the best strategy to search the vector. This is true...
We study an extension of the "standard" learning models to settings where observing the value of an attribute has an associated cost (which might be different for differ...
In this paper, we combine two approaches to handling uncertainty: we use techniques for finding optimal solutions in the expected sense to solve combinatorial optimization proble...

Estimating the illumination and the reflectance properties
of an object surface from a sparse set of images is an
important but inherently ill-posed problem. The problem
becomes...

This paper presents a nonparametric discriminant HMM
and applies it to facial expression recognition. In the proposed
HMM, we introduce an effective nonparametric output
probabi...
