In recent decades, major efforts to digitize historical documents led to the creation of large machine readable corpora, including newspapers, which are waiting to be processed and analyzed. Newspapers are a valuable historical source, notably because of t ...

We propose a preliminary investigation on the benefits and limitations of classifiers based on sparse representations. We specifically focus on the union of subspaces data model and examine binary classifiers built on a sparse non linear mapping (in a redu ...
This paper presents an approach to automatically create a knowledge base for smart buildings and let it dynamically evolve based on the behaviors of the occupants inside. Such a knowledge base compromises all life-style experiences and intelligent building ...
In high dimension, low sample size (HDLSS) settings, classifiers based on Euclidean distances like the nearest neighbor classifier and the average distance classifier perform quite poorly if differences between locations of the underlying populations get m ...

The World Wide Web is one of the most widely used information resources. Understanding the web better will enable us to benefit more of it. In this thesis we develop techniques to learn the properties of the web pages like language and topic using only the ...
Scarce work has been done in the analysis of the composition of conserved non-coding elements (CNEs) that are identified by comparisons of two or more genomes and are found to exist in all metazoan genomes. Here we present the analysis of CNEs with a metho ...
In this work a new method for automatic image classification is proposed. It relies on a compact representation of images using sets of sparse binary features. This work first evaluates the Fast Retina Keypoint binary descriptor and proposes imp ...
The vast amount of user-generated content on the Web has increased the need for handling the problem of automatically processing content in web pages. The segmentation of web pages and noise (non-informative segment) removal are important pre-processing st ...
Attending to an object can strongly modulate the neural processing of this object. Using average EEG, it was shown that small differences in the focus of attention yield large and long lasting changes in brain dynamics (Plomp et al, 2009). Here, we show th ...

Classifiers based on Gaussian mixture models are good performers in many pattern recognition tasks. Unlike decision trees, they can be described as stable classifier: a small change in the sampling of the training set will produce not a large change in the ...
