—As it is true for human perception that we gather information from different sources in natural and multi-modality forms, learning from multi-modalities has become an effective ...
Abstract. We describe progress in the automatic detection and identification of humans in video, given a minimal number of labelled faces as training data. This is an extremely cha...
In this paper, we propose a novel approach to model shape variations. It encodes sparsity, exploits geometric redundancy, and accounts for the different degrees of local variation...
When classifying high-dimensional sequence data, traditional methods (e.g., HMMs, CRFs) may require large amounts of training data to avoid overfitting. In such cases dimensional...
