Spatial priors play crucial roles in many high-level vision tasks, e.g. scene understanding. Usually, learning spatial priors relies on training a structured output model. In this...
We study the computational and sample complexity of parameter and structure learning in graphical models. Our main result shows that the class of factor graphs with bounded degree...
We introduce a new perceptron-based discriminative learning algorithm for labeling structured data such as sequences, trees, and graphs. Since it is fully kernelized and uses poin...
In contrast to traditional Markov random field (MRF) models, we develop a Steerable Random Field (SRF) in which the field potentials are defined in terms of filter responses that ...
Bayesian networks are directed acyclic graphs that represent dependencies between variables in a probabilistic model. Many time series models, including the hidden Markov models (H...
