Semantic hashing[1] seeks compact binary codes of data-points so that the Hamming distance between codewords correlates with semantic similarity. In this paper, we show that the p...
RELIEF is considered one of the most successful algorithms for assessing the quality of features due to its simplicity and effectiveness. It has been recently proved that RELIEF i...
We propose use of an appearance manifold with embedded covariance matrix as a technique for recognizing 3D objects from images that are influenced by geometric and quality-degrade...
An efficient policy search algorithm should estimate the local gradient of the objective function, with respect to the policy parameters, from as few trials as possible. Whereas m...
We introduce a new type of graphical model called a `cumulative distribution network' (CDN), which expresses a joint cumulative distribution as a product of local functions. ...
