Variational inference methods, including mean field methods and loopy belief propagation, have been widely used for approximate probabilistic inference in graphical models. While ...
In this paper we describe a new cluster model which is based on the concept of linear manifolds. The method identifies subsets of the data which are embedded in arbitrary oriented...
Graph construction plays a key role on learning algorithms based on graph Laplacian. However, the traditional graph construction approaches of -neighborhood and k-nearest-neighbor...
Abstract. Supervised classifiers require manually labeled training samples to classify unlabeled objects. Active Learning (AL) can be used to selectively label only “ambiguous...
In many real-world applications, Euclidean distance in the original space is not good due to the curse of dimensionality. In this paper, we propose a new method, called Discrimina...
