On Spectral Learning of Mixtures of Distributions
We consider the problem of learning mixtures of distributions via spectral methods and derive a tight characterization of when such methods are useful. Specifically, given a mixt...

Simplex Optimisation Initialized by Gaussian Mixture for Active Appearance Models
Active appearance model efficiently aligns objects which are previously modelized in images. We use it for Human Machine Interface (face gesture analysis, lips reading) to modeli...

SVMs, Gaussian mixtures, and their generative/discriminative fusion
We present a new technique that employs support vector machines and Gaussian mixture densities to create a generative/discriminative joint classifier. In the past, several approac...

Image Denoising with Nonparametric Hidden Markov Trees
We develop a hierarchical, nonparametric statistical model for wavelet representations of natural images. Extending previous work on Gaussian scale mixtures, wavelet coefficients ...
