Selection and aggregation of ranking criteria became an important topic in information retrieval as search is getting more specialized and as volume of electronically available information grows. In this context, document ranking has undergone a shift from ...
Very often, the only reliable information available to perform change detection is the description of some unchanged regions. Since sometimes these regions do not contain all the relevant information to identify their counterpart (the changes), we consider ...

Object classification and detection aim at recognizing and localizing objects in real-world images. They are fundamental computer vision problems and a prerequisite for full scene understanding. Their difficulty lies in the large number of possible object ...

In this paper we apply boosting to learn complex non-linear local visual feature representations, drawing inspiration from its successful application to visual object detection. The main goal of local feature descriptors is to distinctively repre- sent a s ...
Novel applications in unstructured and non-stationary human environments require robots that learn from experience and adapt autonomously to changing conditions. Predictive models therefore not only need to be accurate, but should also be updated increment ...
Arithmetic abilities are essential in modern society. However, many children suffer from difficulties in learning mathematics, ranging from mild to severe numeracy problems. The prevalence of developmental dyscalculia is about 3%−6% in German speaking coun ...
We examine the problem of learning a set of parameters from a distributed dataset. We assume the datasets are collected by agents over a distributed ad-hoc network, and that the communication of the actual raw data is prohibitive due to either privacy cons ...
Inverse solution allows to estimate sources that generate a given scalp EEG topography. Recently, it has been used in Brain Computer Interfaces (BCIs) to extract robust features based on the hypothesis that projection onto the source space (high dimensiona ...
This paper offers a methodological contribution for computing the distance between two empirical distributions in an Euclidean space of very large dimension. We propose to use decision trees instead of relying on standard quantification of the feature spac ...
In this paper, we present a novel semi-supervised dimensionality reduction technique to address the problems of inefficient learning and costly computation in coping with high-dimensional data. Our method named the dual subspace projections (DSP) embeds hi ...
