three different levels of abstraction: detailed models including ctivity dynamics, weight dynamics that abstract from the neural activity dynamics by an adiabatic approximation, an...
In the presence of a heavy-tail noise distribution, regression becomes much more di cult. Traditional robust regression methods assume that the noise distribution is symmetric and...
Fingerprint identification is based on two basic premises: (i) persistence: the basic characteristics of fingerprints do not change with time; and (ii) individuality: the fingerpr...
This paper investigates the feasibility of person identification based on feature points extracted from palmprint images. Our approach first extracts a set of feature points along...
Missing data handling is an important preparation step for most data discrimination or mining tasks. Inappropriate treatment of missing data may cause large errors or false result...
