We present a new method for classification with structured latent variables. Our model is formulated using the max-margin formalism in the discriminative learning literature. We propose an efficient learning algorithm based on the cutting plane method and decomposed dual optimization. We apply our model to the problem of recognizing human actions from video sequences, where we model a human action...
A feature captured approach was presented to automatically partition a triangle meshes into a coarsely quadrangular segmentation. The triangle meshes was firstly partitioned into a polygonal segmentation which was further split into triangular and quadrangular patches. After the convex and concave features were identified, the triangular patches were eliminated according to their topological relations...
In this paper we present a new discriminative approach to achieve consistent and efficient tracking of non-rigid object motion, such as facial expressions. By utilizing both spatial and temporal appearance coherence at the patch level, the proposed approach can reduce ambiguity and increase accuracy. Recent research demonstrates that feature based approaches, such as constrained local models (CLMs),...
Attribute reduction is one of the central issue in the theoretical research of rough set, aiming at the NP-hard problem of acquiring minimal reduction and all reduction, an optimization algorithm is proposed to construct reduction tree based on discernibility matrix for acquiring attribute reduction. The discernibility set is acquired by improving discernibility matrix first, then the core and reduction...
Constrained local models (CLMs) have recently demonstrated good performance in non-rigid object alignment/ tracking in comparison to leading holistic approaches (e.g., AAMs). A major problem hindering the development of CLMs further, for non-rigid object alignment/tracking, is how to jointly optimize the global warp update across all local search responses. Previous methods have either used general...
A new minimax model on optimal portfolio selection with uncertainty of both randomness and estimation in inputs is established and the corresponding optimal portfolio is derived analytically. Based on this result, a sufficient condition for the existence and uniqueness of a nonnegative equilibrium price system under which the total demand and supply of each asset are equal is provided and an explicit...
