We address the problem of learning the parameters in graphical models when inference is intractable. A common strategy in this case is to replace the partition function with its B...
Occlusion is a difficult problem for appearance-based target tracking, especially when we need to track multiple targets simultaneously and maintain the target identities during t...
Abstract. Humans demonstrate a remarkable ability to parse complicated motion sequences into their constituent structures and motions. We investigate this problem, attempting to le...
Abstract. We consider the problem of clustering data into k 2 clusters given complex relations -- going beyond pairwise -- between the data points. The complex n-wise relations ar...
We present a formal framework for capturing the provenance of data appearing in XQuery views of XML. Building on previous work on relations and their (positive) query languages, w...
