Additive Randomization has been a primary tool to hide sensitive private information during privacy preserving data mining. The previous work based on Spectral Filtering empirically showed that individual data can be separated from the perturbed one and as a result privacy can be seriously compromised. Our previous work initiated the theoretical study on how the estimation error varies with the...

This paper presents a simple but robust visual tracking algorithm based on representing the appearances of objects using affine warps of learned linear subspaces of the image space. The tracker adaptively updates this subspace while tracking by finding a linear subspace that best approximates the observations made in the previous frames. Instead of the traditional L-reconstruction error norm wh...

This study proposes a new method to reconstruct three dimensional (3D) tongue surface motion during speech using only a few sections of the tongue measured with ultrasound imaging. Reconstruction of static 3D tongue surfaces has been reported. This is the first report for reconstruction of 3D tongue surface motion using ultrasound imaging. To temporally align data from multiple scan locations, ...

The iterative back-projection (IBP) algorithm for single image super-resolution (SR) can not guarantee the edge smoothness because the reconstruction error is back-projected isotropically. Furthermore, in the case that there is only one low-resolution input, the estimation of the reconstruction error is easily affected by noise. Thus, this algorithm is highly sensitive to noise. The focus of th...

Restricted Boltzmann Machines (RBMs) are general unsupervised learning devices to ascertain generative models of data distributions. RBMs are often trained using the Contrastive Divergence learning algorithm (CD), an approximation to the gradient of the data log-likelihood. A simple reconstruction error is often used to decide whether the approximation provided by the CD algorithm is good enoug...

Content-invariance in mapping codes learned by GAEs is a useful feature for various relation learning tasks. In this paper we show that the content-invariance of mapping codes for images of 2D and 3D rotated objects can be substantially improved by extending the standard GAE loss (symmetric reconstruction error) with a regularization term that penalizes the symmetric cross-reconstruction error....

In the present article we introduce and validate an approach for single-label multi-class document categorization based on text content features. The introduced approach uses the statistical property of Principal Component Analysis, which minimizes the reconstruction error of the training documents used to compute a low-rank category transformation matrix. Such matrix transforms the original se...

In this paper, various algorithms for designing quadrature mirror filter are reviewed and a new algorithm is presented for the design of near perfect reconstruction quadrature mirror filter bank. In the proposed algorithm, objective function is formulated using the perfect reconstruction condition or magnitude response condition of prototype filter at frequency (ω = 0.5π) in ideal condition. Th...

A merged land–air–sea surface temperature reconstruction analysis is developed for monthly anomalies. The reconstruction is global and spatially complete. Reconstructed anomalies damp toward zero in regions with insufficient sampling. Error estimates account for the damping associated with sparse sampling, and also for bias uncertainty in both the land and sea observations. Averages of the reco...
