The kernel-parameter is one of the few tunable parameters in Support Vector machines, controlling the complexity of the resulting hypothesis. Its choice amounts to model selection...

This paper presents a theoretical definition for designing EDAs called Elitist Convergent Estimation of Distribution Algorithm (ECEDA), and a practical implementation: the Boltzm...
We propose low-rank representation (LRR) to segment data drawn from a union of multiple linear (or affine) subspaces. Given a set of data vectors, LRR seeks the lowestrank represe...
We study the convergence behavior of the Active Mask (AM) framework, originally designed for segmenting punctate image patterns. AM combines the flexibility of traditional active...

We introduce a specification language, Promela-Lite, which captures the essential features of Promela but which, unlike Promela, has a formally defined semantics. We show how we ca...
