Learning Foveal Sensing Strategies in Unconstrained Surveillance Environments
In this paper we report on techniques for automatically learning foveal sensing strategies for an active pan-tiltzoom camera. The approach uses reinforcement learning to discover ...

Gaussian multiresolution models: exploiting sparse Markov and covariance structure
We consider the problem of learning Gaussian multiresolution (MR) models in which data are only available at the finest scale and the coarser, hidden variables serve both to captu...

The Bayesian backfitting relevance vector machine
Traditional non-parametric statistical learning techniques are often computationally attractive, but lack the same generalization and model selection abilities as state-of-the-art...
