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...
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...

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...
We develop a hierarchical, nonparametric statistical model for wavelet representations of natural images. Extending previous work on Gaussian scale mixtures, wavelet coefficients ...
