In this paper, we propose an automatic learning method for gesture recognition. We combine two different pattern recognition techniques: the SelfOrganizing Map (SOM) and Support Ve...
Coarse-to-fine approaches use sequences of increasingly fine approximations to control the complexity of inference and learning. These techniques are often used in NLP and visio...
The finite model generation problem in the first-order logic is a generalization of the propositional satisfiability (SAT) problem. An essential algorithm for solving the proble...
We present a methodology for learning spline-based probabilistic models for sets of contours, proposing a new Monte Carlo variant of the EM algorithm to estimate the parameters of...
Extensive labeled data for image annotation systems, which learn to assign class labels to image regions, is difficult to obtain. We explore a hybrid model framework for utilizing...
