Quadratic optimization lies at the very heart of many structural pattern recognition and computer vision problems, such as graph matching, object recognition, image segmentation, ...
Many facial image analysis methods rely on learningbased techniques such as Adaboost or SVMs to project classifiers based on the selection of local image filters (e.g., Haar and...
The central problem of designing intelligent robot systems which learn by demonstrations of desired behaviour has been largely studied within the field of robotics. Numerous archi...
We consider the problem of learning a mapping function from low-level feature space to high-level semantic space. Under the assumption that the data lie on a submanifold embedded ...
