This paper presents a model for watermarking and some attacks on watermarks. Given the watermarked signal, the so-called Wiener attack performs minimum mean-squared error (MMSE) es...
Empirical studies of multitask learning provide some evidence that the performance of a learning system on its intended targets improves by presenting to the learning system relat...

Projective distortion of surface texture observed in a perspective image can provide direct information about the shape of the underlying surface. Previous theories have generally...
Quantization of continuous variables is important in data analysis, especially for some model classes such as Bayesian networks and decision trees, which use discrete variables. Of...
