A Novel Probabilistic Model for 3D Object Recognition: Spin-Glass Markov Random Fields
This contribution presents a new class of MRF, that is inspired by methods of statistical physics. The new energy function assumes full-connectivity in the neighborhood system and...

An extended photometric stereo algorithm for recovering specular object shape and its reflectance properties
In Photometric stereo, the existence of specularities hampers to recover the normal map. To deal with this common reflective phenomenon, we introduce a novel representation for spe...

Using Clustering to Learn Distance Functions for Supervised Similarity Assessment
Assessing the similarity between objects is a prerequisite for many data mining techniques. This paper introduces a novel approach to learn distance functions that maximizes the c...

A Note on the Distance to Monotonicity of Boolean Functions
Given a function f : {0, 1}n {0, 1}, let M (f) denote the smallest distance between f and a monotone function on {0, 1}n . Let M (f) denote the fraction of hypercube edges where f...

Feature Generation Using General Constructor Functions
Most classification algorithms receive as input a set of attributes of the classified objects. In many cases, however, the supplied set of attributes is not sufficient for creatin...
