Feature selection is an important issue for object detection. In this paper, we propose an effective wrapper-based feature selection scheme using Binary Particle Swarm Optimizatio...
This article presents an appearance based method to detect automatically facial actions. Our approach focuses on reducing features sensitivity to identity of the subject. We compu...
Large margin classifiers have demonstrated their advantages in many visual learning tasks, and have attracted much attention in vision and image processing communities. In this pa...
We present a novel feature screening algorithm by deriving relevance measures from the decision boundary of Support Vector Machines. It alleviates the "independence" assu...
