It is well known that many hard tasks considered in machine learning and data mining can be solved in a rather simple and robust way with an instanceand distance-based approach. In...
A pervasive virtual instructor is an artificially intelligent instructor that may appear transparent to the learner or appear in the form of a threedimensional graphical character...
We propose a novel adaptive technique for detecting moving shadows and distinguishing them from moving objects in video sequences. Most methods for detecting shadows work in a stat...
To be effective, an agent that collaborates with humans needs to be able to learn new tasks from humans they work with. This paper describes a system that learns executable task m...

We introduce models for density estimation with multiple, hidden, continuous factors. In particular, we propose a generalization of multilinear models using nonlinear basis functi...
