In many applications, we need to analyze a large number of time series. Segments of time series demonstrating dominating advantages over others are often of particular interest. In...
Speech recognition is usually based on Hidden Markov Models (HMMs), which represent the temporal dynamics of speech very efficiently, and Gaussian mixture models, which do non-opt...
Several object categorization algorithms use kernel methods over multiple cues, as they offer a principled approach to combine multiple cues, and to obtain state-of-theart perform...
This paper presents a strategy to improve the AdaBoost algorithm with a quadratic combination of base classifiers. We observe that learning this combination is necessary to get be...
— Design of Service Level Agreements (SLAs) emerges as an increasingly important discipline in business-oriented IT management. In this work, we study utility maximization of con...
