We estimate a vehicle’s speed, wheelbase length, and its tire track length by jointly estimating its acoustic wave-pattern using a single passive acoustic sensor that records the vehicle’s drive-by noise. The acoustic wave-pattern is determined using three ...

Multiple kernel learning (MKL) aims at simultaneously learning a kernel and the associated predictor in supervised learning settings. For the support vector machine, an efficient and general multiple kernel learning algorithm, based on semi-infinite linear ...
Memory colours refer to the colour of specific image regions that have the essential attribute of being perceived in a consistent manner by human observers. In colour correction-or rendering-tasks, this consistency implies that they have to be faithfully r ...
Face detection allows to recognize and detect human faces and provides information about their location in a given image. Many applications such as biometrics, face recognition, and video surveillance employ face detection as one of their main modules. The ...
We extend the standard boosting procedure to train a two-layer classifier dedicated to handwritten char- acter recognition. The scheme we propose relies on a hidden layer which extracts feature vectors on a fixed number of points of interest, and an output ...
Decision trees can be used to represent a large number of expert system rules in a compact way. We describe machine learning algorithms for learning decision trees. We have implemented the algorithms, including bagging and boosting techniques. We have depl ...

A brain-computer interface (BCI) is a communication system that translates brain-activity into commands for a computer or other devices. In other words, a BCI allows users to act on their environment by using only brain-activity, without using peripheral n ...
Biometric identity verification systems frequently face the challenges of non-controlled conditions of data acquisition. Under such conditions biometric signals may suffer from quality degradation due to extraneous, identity-independent factors. It has bee ...
We consider the problem of binary classification where the classifier may abstain instead of classifying each observation. The Bayes decision rule for this setup, known as Chow’s rule, is defined by two thresholds on posterior probabilities. From simple des ...
