—Collaborative mechanisms between services are a crucial aspect in the recent development of pervasive computing systems based on the paradigm of service-oriented architecture. C...
Mixed Group Ranks is a parametric method for combining rank based classiers that is eective for many-class problems. Its parametric structure combines qualities of voting methods...
Markov Random Field, or MRF, models are a powerful tool for modeling images. While much progress has been made in algorithms for inference in MRFs, learning the parameters of an M...
We present a variational approach to the problem of registering planar shapes despite missing parts. Registration is achieved through the evolution of a partial differential equat...

A cost-sensitive extension of boosting, denoted as asymmetric boosting, is presented. Unlike previous proposals, the new algorithm is derived from sound decision-theoretic princip...
