We propose a novel variant of the conjugate gradient algorithm, Kernel Conjugate Gradient (KCG), designed to speed up learning for kernel machines with differentiable loss functio...
This paper presents a novel learning method for human action detection in video sequences. The detecting problem is not limited in controlled settings like stationary background or...
The problem of character recognition in a book should be formulated significantly different from that of a single page or word. An ideal approach to design such a recognizer is to...
The objective of this work is classifying texture from a single image under unknown lighting conditions. The current and successful approach to this task is to treat it as a stati...
Although each iteration of the popular kMeans clustering heuristic scales well to larger problem sizes, it often requires an unacceptably-high number of iterations to converge to ...
