In environmental and natural resource planning domains actions are taken at a large number of locations over multiple time periods. These problems have enormous state and action s...
The face region immediately surrounding one, or both, eyes is called the periocular region. This paper presents an iris segmentation algorithm for challenging periocular images bas...
Reducing the number of labeled examples required to learn accurate prediction models is an important problem in structured output prediction. In this paper we propose a new transd...
—We introduce a simple image descriptor referred to as the image signature. We show, within the theoretical framework of sparse signal mixing, that this quantity spatially approx...
