In this paper, we propose Confidence Network (ConfNet) which not only makes predictions on input images but also generates a confidence score that estimates the probability of correctness of each prediction. Furthermore, Confidence Loss is proposed to make ConfNet automatically learn confidence scor…
Finding the locations and identities of faces in videos is a very important task in numerous applications. In this paper, we propose a correlation-based face detection approach to improve the performance of face recognition tasks for videos. We apply correlation measures to pairs of response maps wh…
Diabetic retinopathy is the primary cause of blindness in the working-age population of the developed world. Diagnosing the disease heavily relies on imaging studies, which is a time consuming and a manual process performed by trained clinicians. Enhancing the accuracy and speed of the detection pro…
We study a class of non-parametric density estimators under Bayesian settings. The estimators are obtained by adaptively partitioning the sample space. Under a suitable prior, we analyze the concentration rate of the posterior distribution, and demonstrate that the rate does not directly depend on t…
Given $iid$ observations from an unknown continuous distribution defined on some domain $\Omega$, we propose a nonparametric method to learn a piecewise constant function to approximate the underlying probability density function. Our density estimate is a piecewise constant function defined on a bi…
