Book Methods for Large scale Machine Learning and Computer Vision

Download or read book Methods for Large scale Machine Learning and Computer Vision written by Li Yeqing and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the advance of the Internet and information technology, nowadays people can easily collect and store tremendous amounts of data such as images and videos. Developing machine learning and computer vision to analysis and learn from the gigantic data sets is an interesting yet challenging problem. Inspired by the trend, this thesis focus on developing large-scale machine learning and computer vision techniques for the purpose of handling various kinds of problems on gigantic data sets. With respect to the problem of image classification, we employ the technique of sub-selection, which uses partial observations to efficiently approximate the original high dimensional problems.. We consider the classification models based on sparse representation or collaborative representation. In practical applications, the performance of classification can be affected by problems like misalignment, occlusion and big noises. To deal with these problems, we propose a robust sub-representation method, which can effectively handle these problems with an efficient scheme. With respect to the problem of similarity search, this thesis contribute a novel method for hashing a large number of images. While many researchers have worked on the topic of how to find good hash function for this task, the thesis will propose a new approach to address effciency. In particular, the training step of many existing hash methods relies on computing the Principle Components Analysis (PCA). However, performing PCA on large dataset is time-consuming. The thesis will prove that, under some conditions, the PCA can be computed by using only a small part of the data. With the theoretical guarantee, one can accelerate the training process of hashing without loss much of accuracy. With respect to the problem of large-scale multi-view clustering, the thesis contribute a novel method for graph-based clustering. A graph offers an attractive way of representing data and discovering the essential information such as the neighborhood structure. However, both of the graph construction process and graph-based learning techniques become computationally prohibitive at a large scale. To overcome these bottlenecks, we present a novel graph construction approach, called Salient Graphs, which enjoys linear space and time complexities and can thus be constructed over gigantic databases efficiently. Then, we implement an efficient graph-cut algorithm, which iteratively search consensus between multiple views and perform clustering. This results in an accurate and fast algorithm for multi-view data clustering. With respect to the problem of visual tracking, the thesis contribute a novel method for instrument tracking in retinal microsurgery. The instrument tracking is a key task in robot-assist surgical system. In this kind of system, data is collected and processing in real-time. Therefore, a tracking algorithm need to find good balance between accuracy and efficiency. The thesis proposed a novel visual tracker based on online learning. The proposed algorithm is able to run in video frame-rate while achieving the state-of-the-art accuracy.

Book Machine Learning in Computer Vision

Download or read book Machine Learning in Computer Vision written by Nicu Sebe and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-10-04 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of this book is to address the use of several important machine learning techniques into computer vision applications. An innovative combination of computer vision and machine learning techniques has the promise of advancing the field of computer vision, which contributes to better understanding of complex real-world applications. The effective usage of machine learning technology in real-world computer vision problems requires understanding the domain of application, abstraction of a learning problem from a given computer vision task, and the selection of appropriate representations for the learnable (input) and learned (internal) entities of the system. In this book, we address all these important aspects from a new perspective: that the key element in the current computer revolution is the use of machine learning to capture the variations in visual appearance, rather than having the designer of the model accomplish this. As a bonus, models learned from large datasets are likely to be more robust and more realistic than the brittle all-design models.

Book Optimization for Machine Learning

Download or read book Optimization for Machine Learning written by Suvrit Sra and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An up-to-date account of the interplay between optimization and machine learning, accessible to students and researchers in both communities. The interplay between optimization and machine learning is one of the most important developments in modern computational science. Optimization formulations and methods are proving to be vital in designing algorithms to extract essential knowledge from huge volumes of data. Machine learning, however, is not simply a consumer of optimization technology but a rapidly evolving field that is itself generating new optimization ideas. This book captures the state of the art of the interaction between optimization and machine learning in a way that is accessible to researchers in both fields. Optimization approaches have enjoyed prominence in machine learning because of their wide applicability and attractive theoretical properties. The increasing complexity, size, and variety of today's machine learning models call for the reassessment of existing assumptions. This book starts the process of reassessment. It describes the resurgence in novel contexts of established frameworks such as first-order methods, stochastic approximations, convex relaxations, interior-point methods, and proximal methods. It also devotes attention to newer themes such as regularized optimization, robust optimization, gradient and subgradient methods, splitting techniques, and second-order methods. Many of these techniques draw inspiration from other fields, including operations research, theoretical computer science, and subfields of optimization. The book will enrich the ongoing cross-fertilization between the machine learning community and these other fields, and within the broader optimization community.

The courses are delivered by world renowned experts in the field, from both academia and industry, and cover both theoretical and practical aspects of real Computer Vision problems. The school is organized every year by University of Cambridge (Computer Vision and Robotics Group) and University of Catania (Image Processing Lab). Different topics are covered each year. A summary of the past Computer Vision Summer Schools can be found at: http://www.dmi.unict.it/icvss This edited volume contains a selection of articles covering some of the talks and tutorials held during the last editions of the school. The chapters provide an in-depth overview of challenging areas with key references to the existing literature.
