— In this work, we perform an extensive statistical evaluation for learning and recognition of object manipulation actions. We concentrate on single arm/hand actions but study th...
The foremost nonlinear dimensionality reduction algorithms provide an embedding only for the given training data, with no straightforward extension for test points. This shortcomin...
In this paper, we propose the concept of Manifold of Facial Expression based on the observation that images of a subject’s facial expressions define a smooth manifold in the hig...
We propose a novel nonlinear, probabilistic and variational method for adding shape information to level setbased segmentation and tracking. Unlike previous work, we represent sha...
Many unsupervised algorithms for nonlinear dimensionality reduction, such as locally linear embedding (LLE) and Laplacian eigenmaps, are derived from the spectral decompositions o...
