Abstract. Random graphs with given expected degrees G(w) were introduced by Chung and Lu so as to extend the theory of classical G(n, p) random graphs to include random power law g...
Many statistical M-estimators are based on convex optimization problems formed by the weighted sum of a loss function with a norm-based regularizer. We analyze the convergence rat...

In this work, we propose an unsupervised Bayesian model for the detection of moving objects from dynamic scenes. This unsupervised solution is a three-step approach that uses a st...
Recognition of chatting activities in social interactions is useful for constructing human social networks. However, the existence of multiple people involved in multiple dialogue...
We propose a new family of latent variable models called max-margin min-entropy (m3e) models, which define a distribution over the output and the hidden variables conditioned on ...
