Support Vector Machines: Training and Applications
(1997-03-01)
The Support Vector Machine (SVM) is a new and very promising classification technique developed by Vapnik and his group at AT&T Bell Labs. This new learning algorithm can be seen as an alternative training technique ...
An Equivalence Between Sparse Approximation and Support Vector Machines
(1997-05-01)
In the first part of this paper we show a similarity between the principle of Structural Risk Minimization Principle (SRM) (Vapnik, 1982) and the idea of Sparse Approximation, as defined in (Chen, Donoho and Saunders, ...
The Delta Tree: An Object-Centered Approach to Image-Based Rendering
(1997-05-02)
This paper introduces the delta tree, a data structure that represents an object using a set of reference images. It also describes an algorithm for generating arbitrary re-projections of an object by traversing its ...
Image-Based View Synthesis
(1997-01-01)
We present a new method for rendering novel images of flexible 3D objects from a small number of example images in correspondence. The strength of the method is the ability to synthesize images whose viewing position ...
Triangulation by Continuous Embedding
(1997-03-01)
When triangulating a belief network we aim to obtain a junction tree of minimum state space. Searching for the optimal triangulation can be cast as a search over all the permutations of the network's vaeriables. Our ...
A View on Dyslexia
(1997-06-01)
We describe here, briefly, a perceptual non-reading measure which reliably distinguishes between dyslexic persons and ordinary readers. More importantly, we describe a regimen of practice with which dyslexics learn a ...
On Degeneracy of Linear Reconstruction from Three Views: Linear Line Complex and Applications
(1997-12-01)
This paper investigates the linear degeneracies of projective structure estimation from point and line features across three views. We show that the rank of the linear system of equations for recovering the trilinear tensor ...
Sparse Representations of Multiple Signals
(1997-09-01)
We discuss the problem of finding sparse representations of a class of signals. We formalize the problem and prove it is NP-complete both in the case of a single signal and that of multiple ones. Next we develop a simple ...
A Perturbation Scheme for Spherical Arrangements with Application to Molecular Modeling
(1997-12-01)
We describe a software package for computing and manipulating the subdivision of a sphere by a collection of (not necessarily great) circles and for computing the boundary surface of the union of spheres. We present problems ...
Paradigms for Structure in an Amorphous Computer
(1997-10-01)
Recent developments in microfabrication and nanotechnology will enable the inexpensive manufacturing of massive numbers of tiny computing elements with sensors and actuators. New programming paradigms are required for ...
