Hierarchical models have been extensively studied in various domains. However, existing models assume fixed model structures or incorporate structural uncertainty generatively. In...
We propose Laplace max-margin Markov networks (LapM3 N), and a general class of Bayesian M3 N (BM3 N) of which the LapM3 N is a special case with sparse structural bias, for robus...
We propose a simple, novel and yet effective method for building and testing decision trees that minimizes the sum of the misclassification and test costs. More specifically, we f...

We present a novel approach, clustering on local image profiles, for statistically characterizing image intensity in object boundary regions. In deformable model segmentation, a d...
