Changepoint detection is commonly formulated by minimizing the sum of in-sample losses to quantify the model's overall fit. However, for flexible modeling procedures -- especially those involving high-dimensional parameter spaces or…

Incorporating feature selection into a classification or regression method often carries a number of advantages. In this paper we formalize feature selection specifically from a discriminative perspective of improving…

We present a self-consistent framework to perform the wavelet analysis of two-dimensional statistical distributions. The analysis targets the 2D probability density function (p.d.f.) of an input sample, in which each object is characterized…

Achieving invariance to nuisance transformations is a fundamental challenge in the construction of robust and reliable vision systems. Existing approaches to invariance scale exponentially with the dimension of the family of…

Local community detection, the problem of identifying a set of relevant nodes nearby a small set of input seed nodes, is an important graph primitive with a wealth of applications and research activity. Recent approaches include using local…

Feature selection, as a critical pre-processing step for machine learning, aims at determining representative predictors from a high-dimensional feature space dataset to improve the prediction accuracy. However, the increase in feature…

Gene expression data is widely used in disease analysis and cancer diagnosis. However, since gene expression data could contain thousands of genes simultaneously, successful microarray classification is rather difficult. Feature selection…

Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have demonstrated excellent performance in image classification, but still show room for improvement in object-detection tasks with many categories, in particular for cluttered scenes and occlusion.…
