For large-scale classification problems, the training samples can be clustered beforehand as a downsampling pre-process, and then only the obtained clusters are used for training....
The efficiency and robustness of a vision system is often largely determined by the quality of the image features available to it. In data mining, one typically works with immense...
Kernel machines (e.g. SVM, KLDA) have shown state-ofthe-art performance in several visual classification tasks. The classification performance of kernel machines greatly depends o...
We live in the information age, where the amount of data readily available already overwhelms our capacity to analyze and absorb it without help from our machines. In particular, ...
We present a probabilistic model-based framework for distributed learning that takes into account privacy restrictions and is applicable to scenarios where the different sites ha...
