The use of Bayesian networks for classification problems has received significant recent attention. Although computationally efficient, the standard maximum likelihood learning me...
Graph-based methods for semi-supervised learning have recently been shown to be promising for combining labeled and unlabeled data in classification problems. However, inference f...
In this paper, a new learning framework?probabilistic boosting-tree (PBT), is proposed for learning two-class and multi-class discriminative models. In the learning stage, the pro...
We explore sparse regression for effective feature selection and classification in face identity and expression recognition. We argue that sparse regression in pixel space is inap...
We propose a local, generative model for similarity-based classification. The method is applicable to the case that only pairwise similarities between samples are available. The c...
