Human beings have the ability to learn to recognize a new visual category based on only one or few training examples. Part of this ability might come from the use of knowledge fro...
In this paper we address the problem of classifying images, by exploiting global features that describe color and illumination properties, and by using the statistical learning pa...
Abstract. We propose a highly automated approach to the point correspondence problem for anatomical shapes in medical images. Manual landmarking is performed on a small subset of t...
A new algorithm for training Restricted Boltzmann Machines is introduced. The algorithm, named Persistent Contrastive Divergence, is different from the standard Contrastive Diverg...
In supervised kernel methods, it has been observed that the performance of the SVM classifier is poor in cases where the diagonal entries of the Gram matrix are large relative to ...
