We introduce a practical and improved version of the Polyharmonic Local Sine transform (PHLST) called PHLST5. After partitioning an input image into a set of rectangular blocks, t...
This paper presents a method based on AdaBoost to identify the sex of a person from a low resolution grayscale picture of their face. The method described here is implemented in a...
We investigate a method for learning object categories in a weakly supervised manner. Given a set of images known to contain the target category from a similar viewpoint, learning...
Abstract--High-dimensional data are common in many domains, and dimensionality reduction is the key to cope with the curse-of-dimensionality. Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) is ...
Abstract--Plenty of methods have been proposed in order to discover latent variables (features) in data sets. Such approaches include the principal component analysis (PCA), indepe...
