We describe a technique for comparing distributions without the need for density estimation as an intermediate step. Our approach relies on mapping the distributions into a Reprod...

We propose two statistical tests to determine if two samples are from different distributions. Our test statistic is in both cases the distance between the means of the two sample...

Abstract We review the evolution of the nonparametric regression modeling in imaging from the local Nadaraya-Watson kernel estimate to the nonlocal means and further to transform-d...

Measuring image similarity is a central topic in computer vision. In this paper, we learn similarity from Flickr groups and use it to organize photos. Two images are similar if th...
