Abstract. Bayesian inference provides a powerful framework to optimally integrate statistically learned prior knowledge into numerous computer vision algorithms. While the Bayesian...
Despite popular belief, boosting algorithms and related coordinate descent methods are prone to overfitting. We derive modifications to AdaBoost and related gradient-based coordin...
A multiclass classification problem can be reduced to a collection of binary problems with the aid of a coding matrix. The quality of the final solution, which is an ensemble of b...
Conditional Random Fields (CRFs; Lafferty, McCallum, & Pereira, 2001) provide a flexible and powerful model for learning to assign labels to elements of sequences in such appl...

A powerful approach to search is to try to learn a distribution of good solutions (in particular of the dependencies between their variables) and use this distribution as a basis ...
