Most works on multi-agent reinforcement learning focus on scenarios where the state of the environment is fully observable. In this work, we consider a cooperative policy evaluation task in which agents are not assumed to observe the environment state dire ...
Attribute-based representations help machine learning models perform tasks based on human understandable concepts, allowing a closer human-machine collaboration. However, learning attributes that accurately reflect the content of an image is not always str ...
We consider the model selection consistency or sparsistency of a broad set of ℓ1-regularized M-estimators for linear and non-linear statistical models in a unified fashion. For this purpose, we propose the local structured smoothness condition (LSS ...
Facial feature detection offers a wide range of applications, e.g. in facial image processing, human computer interaction, consumer electronics, and the entertainment industry. These applications impose two antagonistic key requirements: high processing sp ...
Reconstructing complex curvilinear structures such as neural circuits, road networks, and blood vessels is a key challenge in many scientific and engineering fields. It has a broad range of applications, from the delineation of micrometer-sized neurons in ...
A common assumption in activity recognition is that the system remains unchanged between its design and its posterior operation. However, many factors affect the data distribution between two different experimental sessions. One of these factors is the pot ...
A common assumption in machine vision is that the training and test samples are drawn from the same distribution. However, there are many problems when this assumption is grossly violated, as in bio-medical applications where different acquisitions can gen ...
