This work aims to propose an approach for pruning a bagging ensemble regression (BER) model based on sparse representation, which we call sparse representation pruning (SRP). Firstly, a BER model with a specific number of subensembles should be trained. Then, the BER model is pruned by our sparse re…
In dictionary learning, a desirable property for the dictionary is to be of low mutual and average coherences. Mutual coherence is defined as the maximum absolute correlation between distinct atoms of the dictionary, whereas the average coherence is a measure of the average correlations. In this pap…
In this paper, a proof is provided to show that Gaussian signals will lose their Gaussianity if they are passed through a polynomial of an order greater than 1. This can help in blind compensation of polynomial nonlinearities on Gaussian sources by forcing the output to follow a Gaussian distributio…
In this paper we address the problem of image interpolation using Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM) as a prior. Previous methods of image restoration with GMM have not considered spatial (geometric) distance between patches in clustering, failing to fully exploit the coherency of nearby patches. The GMM…
