Abstract. We present a technique that achieves local contrast enhancement by representing it as an optimization problem. For this, we first introduce a scalar objective function th...
We propose a robust face alignment algorithm with a novel discriminative local texture model. Different from the conventional descriptive PCA local texture model in ASM, classifie...

Abstract. Choosing representations and operators that preserve locality between genotype and phenotype space is an important goal in EA design. In the GA literature there has been ...
Recently, instead of selecting a single kernel, multiple kernel learning (MKL) has been proposed which uses a convex combination of kernels, where the weight of each kernel is opt...
As organizations start to use data-intensive cluster computing systems like Hadoop and Dryad for more applications, there is a growing need to share clusters between users. Howeve...
