Based on the thermodynamic concept of a reservoir, we investigate a computational model for interaction with unresolved degrees of freedom (a thermal bath). We assume that a finite...
We present a novel Quadratic Program (QP) formulation for robust multi-model fitting of geometric structures in vision data. Our objective function enforces both the fidelity of...
One of the difficulties in second language (L2) learning is the weakness in discriminating between acoustic diversity within an L2 phoneme category and between different categori...
— This paper describes a Markov random field (MRF) model with weighting parameters optimized by conditional random field (CRF) for on-line recognition of handwritten Japanese cha...
Efficient and accurate fitting of Active Appearance
Models (AAM) is a key requirement for many applications.
The most efficient fitting algorithm today is Inverse Compositional
