Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) provides a lower rank approximation of a matrix. Due to nonnegativity imposed on the factors, it gives a latent structure that is often mor...
We present a probabilistic model for a document corpus that combines many of the desirable features of previous models. The model is called “GaP” for Gamma-Poisson, the distri...
In this paper, we present an efficient system for action recognition from very short sequences. For action recognition typically appearance and/or motion information of an action ...
We study a generative model in which hidden causes combine competitively to produce observations. Multiple active causes combine to determine the value of an observed variable thr...
There has been much recent progress in the technical infrastructure necessary to continuously characterize and archive all sounds, or more precisely auditory streams, that occur w...
