We show that a classifier based on Gaussian mixture models (GMM) can be trained discriminatively to improve accuracy. We describe a training procedure based on the extended Baum-W...
An optimizing compiler has a hard time to generate a code which will perform at top speed for an arbitrary data set size. In general, the low level optimization process must take i...
Principal component analysis (PCA) is a widely used statistical technique for unsupervised dimension reduction. K-means clustering is a commonly used data clustering for unsupervi...
Many machine learning algorithms can be formulated in the framework of statistical independence such as the Hilbert Schmidt Independence Criterion. In this paper, we extend this c...

Pictorial structure (PS) models are extensively used for part-based recognition of scenes, people, animals and multi-part objects. To achieve tractability, the structure and param...
