Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) has shown encouraging performance for the problem of unsupervised image automatic annotation. LSA conducts annotation by keywords propagation on a l...
The presence of autocorrelation provides a strong motivation for using relational learning and inference techniques. Autocorrelation is a statistical dependence between the values...
We present a novel and intuitive framework for building modular vision systems for complex tasks such as surveillance applications. Inspired by graphical models, especially factor...
Based on a recent development in the area of error control coding, we introduce the notion of convolutional factor graphs (CFGs) as a new class of probabilistic graphical models. ...
—We propose a unified graphical model that can represent both the causal and noncausal relationships among random variables and apply it to the image segmentation problem. Specif...
