Several object categorization algorithms use kernel methods over multiple cues, as they offer a principled ap- proach to combine multiple cues, and to obtain state-of-the- art performance. A general drawback of these strategies is the high computational co ...

We propose a novel system for designing and manufacturing surfaces that produce desired caustic images when illuminated by a light source. Our system is based on a nonnegative image decomposition using a set of possibly overlapping anisotropic Gaussian ker ...
We describe a kernel wrapper, a Mercer kernel for the task of phoneme sequence recognition which is based on operations with the Gaussian kernel, and suitable for any sequence kernel classifier. We start by presenting a kernel-based algorithm for phoneme s ...
The Support Vector Machine (SVM) is an acknowledged powerful tool for building classifiers, but it lacks flexibility, in the sense that the kernel is chosen prior to learning. Multiple Kernel Learning (MKL) enables to learn the kernel, from an ensemble of ...
We present a proposal of a kernel-based model for large vocabulary continuous speech recognizer. The continuous speech recognition is described as a problem of finding the best phoneme sequence and its best time span, where the phonemes are generated from ...
We introduce a new semi-orthogonal complex wavelet basis of L2(R2 ). The basis functions are associated to the complex gradient-Laplace operator, which plays a central role in image processing. We define analytically a single- ...

This paper presents the algorithms and results of our par- ticipation to the image annotation task of ImageCLEFmed 2007. We proposed a multi-cue approach where images are represented both by global and local descriptors. These cues are combined following t ...
Non-local means (NLM) provides a powerful framework for denoising. However, there are a few parameters of the algorithm-most notably, the width of the smoothing kernel-that are data-dependent and difficult to tune. Here, we propose to use Stein's unbiased ...
