We study two-layer belief networks of binary random variables in which the conditional probabilities Pr childjparents depend monotonically on weighted sums of the parents. In larg...
We describe an annealing procedure that computes the normalized N-cut of a weighted graph G. The first phase transition computes the solution of the approximate normalized 2-cut p...
This paper presents a novel set of geometric moments with symmetric kernel (SGM) obtained using an appropriate transformation of image coordinates. By using this image transformat...
Hundreds of millions of users each day submit queries to the Web search engine. The user queries are typically very short which makes query understanding a challenging problem. In...
Due to distortion, noise, segmentation errors, overlap, and occlusion of objects in digital images, it is usually impossible to extract complete object contours or to segment the ...
