Learning with hidden variables is a central challenge in probabilistic graphical models that has important implications for many real-life problems. The classical approach is usin...
One of the difficulties of Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) is the gap between high-level concepts and low-level image features, e.g., color and texture. Relevance feedback wa...
This paper presents a new algorithm for the problem of robust subspace learning (RSL), i.e., the estimation of linear subspace parameters from a set of data points in the presence...
Reinforcement learning is a paradigm under which an agent seeks to improve its policy by making learning updates based on the experiences it gathers through interaction with the en...
