This paper presents a statistical model for textures that uses a non-negative decomposition on a set of local atoms learned from an exemplar. This model is described by the varianc...
Bayesian methods for visual tracking model the likelihood of image measurements conditioned on a tracking hypothesis. Image measurements may, for example, correspond to various fi...
The dynamic hierarchical Dirichlet process (dHDP) is developed to model the timeevolving statistical properties of sequential data sets. The data collected at any time point are r...
Answer patterns have been shown to improve the performance of open-domain factoid QA systems. Their use, however, requires either constructing the patterns manually or developing ...
