We present a new approximate inference algorithm for Deep Boltzmann Machines (DBM's), a generative model with many layers of hidden variables. The algorithm learns a separate...
Abstract Recently proposed edge-preserving multiscale image decompositions enable artifact-free and visually appealing image editing. As the human eye is sensitive to contrast, per...
Retrieving videos using key words requires obtaining the semantic features of the videos. Most work reported in the literature focuses on annotating a video shot with a fixed numb...
Many applications involve multiple-modalities such as text and images that describe the problem of interest. In order to leverage the information present in all the modalities, on...
We introduce the interactive system “Beady” to assist the design and construction of customized 3D beadwork. The user first creates a polygonal mesh model called the design m...
