We propose a new penalty function which, when used as regularization for empirical risk minimization procedures, leads to sparse estimators. The support of the sparse vector is ty...
We apply Stochastic Meta-Descent (SMD), a stochastic gradient optimization method with gain vector adaptation, to the training of Conditional Random Fields (CRFs). On several larg...

Abstract. We describe methods for high-performance and high-quality rendering of point models, including advanced shading, anti-aliasing, and transparency. we keep the rendering qu...
In plenty of scenarios, data can be represented as vectors mathematically abstracted as points in a Euclidean space. Because a great number of machine learning and data mining app...
In content-based image retrieval, relevance feedback has been introduced to narrow the gap between low-level image feature and high-level semantic concept. Furthermore, to speed u...
