Polyhedral conditions for the nonexistence of the MLE for hierarchical log-linear models
We provide a polyhedral description of the conditions for the existence of the maximum likelihood estimate (MLE) for a hierarchical log-linear model. The MLE exists if and only if...

Video-Based Face Recognition Using Bayesian Inference Model
There has been a flurry of works on video sequence-based face recognition in recent years. One of the hard problems in this area is how to effectively combine the facial configu...

Performance Guarantees for Regularized Maximum Entropy Density Estimation
Abstract. We consider the problem of estimating an unknown probability distribution from samples using the principle of maximum entropy (maxent). To alleviate overfitting with a v...

Face Localization via Hierarchical CONDENSATION with Fisher Boosting Feature Selection
We formulate face localization as a Maximum A Posteriori Probability(MAP) problem of finding the best estimation of human face configuration in a given image. The a prior distribu...

Cerebrovascular Segmentation from TOF Using Stochastic Models
In this paper, we present an automatic statistical approach for extracting 3D blood vessels from time-of-flight (TOF) magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) data. The voxels of the d...
