In this paper we present a family of models and learning algorithms that can simultaneously align and cluster sets of multidimensional curves measured on a discrete time grid. Our...
Ranking is a fundamental operation in data analysis and decision support, and plays an even more crucial role if the dataset being explored exhibits uncertainty. This has led to m...
—Many face recognition algorithms use “distance-based” methods: Feature vectors are extracted from each face and distances in feature space are compared to determine matches....

In sequential prediction tasks, one repeatedly tries to predict the next element in a sequence. A classical way to solve these problems is to fit an order-n Markov model to the da...
