Exponential Priors for Maximum Entropy Models
Maximum entropy models are a common modeling technique, but prone to overfitting. We show that using an exponential distribution as a prior leads to bounded absolute discounting b...

Attractor-Guided Particle Filtering for Lip Contour Tracking
Abstract. We present a lip contour tracking algorithm using attractorguided particle filtering. Usually it is difficult to robustly track the lip contour because the lip contour i...

A study on automatic age estimation using a large database
In this paper we study some problems related to human age estimation using a large database. First, we study the influence of gender on age estimation based on face representation...

Autonomous shaping: knowledge transfer in reinforcement learning
We introduce the use of learned shaping rewards in reinforcement learning tasks, where an agent uses prior experience on a sequence of tasks to learn a portable predictor that est...

An Ensemble Prior of Image Structure for Cross-Modal Inference
In cross-modal inference, we estimate complete fields from noisy and missing observations of one sensory modality using structure found in another sensory modality. This inference...
