This paper presents a new framework for shape modeling and analysis. A shape instance is described by a curvature-based shape descriptor. A Profile Hidden Markov Model (PHMM) is ...
Powerful statistical models that can be learned efficiently from large amounts of data are currently revolutionizing computer vision. These models possess a rich internal structur...
In this paper we explicitly identify the probabilistic model underlying LCS by linking it to a generalisation of the common Mixture-of-Experts model. Having an explicit representa...
We propose a new approach for automatic melody extraction from polyphonic audio, based on Probabilistic Latent Component Analysis (PLCA). An audio signal is first divided into vo...
A common approach in machine learning is to use a large amount of labeled data to train a model. Usually this model can then only be used to classify data in the same feature spac...
