We provide a novel formulation for computing median filter with spatial regularization as minimizing a cost function composed of absolute value norms. We turn this cost minimizat...
We describe a new approach for phoneme recognition which aims at minimizing the phoneme error rate. Building on structured prediction techniques, we formulate the phoneme recogniz...
Imaging in poor weather is often severely degraded by scattering due to suspended particles in the atmosphere such as haze and fog. In this paper, we propose a novel fast defoggin...
This paper presents a new human age estimation method by using multiple feature fusion via facial image analysis. Motivated by the fact that both shape and texture information of ...
Hidden Conditional Random Fields(HCRF) is a very promising approach to model speech. However, because HCRF computes the score of a hypothesis by summing up linearly weighted featu...
