It is generally believed that quadratic discriminant analysis (QDA) can better fit the data in practical pattern recognition applications compared to linear discriminant analysis ...

We introduce in this paper two probabilistic reasoning models (PRM-1 and PRM-2) which combine the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) technique and the Bayes classifier and show th...
Most image retrieval systems perform a linear search over the database to find the closest match to a query. However, databases usually exhibit a natural grouping structure into c...
We propose a local, generative model for similarity-based classification. The method is applicable to the case that only pairwise similarities between samples are available. The c...
In formal design, decoupling means to make the features of a formal system as independent as possible from each other. Decoupling tends to make the features semantically more primi...
