The scores returned by support vector machines are often used as a confidence measures in the classification of new examples. However, there is no theoretical argument sustaining ...
Classifiers that refrain from classification in certain cases can significantly reduce the misclassification cost. However, the parameters for such abstaining classifiers are ofte...
Cast shadows induced by moving objects often cause serious problems to many vision applications. We present in this paper an online statistical learning approach to model the backg...
Adaptor grammars (Johnson et al., 2007b) are a non-parametric Bayesian extension of Probabilistic Context-Free Grammars (PCFGs) which in effect learn the probabilities of entire s...
We revisit 26 meta-features typically used in the context of meta-learning for model selection. Using visual analysis and computational complexity considerations, we find 4 meta-f...
