The automatic extraction of handwriting styles is an important process that can be used for various applications in the processing of handwriting. We propose a novel method that e...
A multi-step method of partitioning the pixels of an image such that the partitions at one step are wholly nested inside the partitions of the next step is described, i.e. we desc...
In this paper, we present the results of a project that seeks to transform low-level features to a higher level of meaning. This project concerns a technique, latent semantic anal...
An autonomous variational inference algorithm for arbitrary graphical models requires the ability to optimize variational approximations over the space of model parameters as well...
In this paper we will briefly describe the approaches taken by Berkeley for the main GeoCLEF 2008 tasks (Mono and Bilingual retrieval). The approach this year used probabilistic t...
