  4. 2. Stochastic Modeling for Video Object Tracking and Online Learning: manifolds and particle filters

    University dissertation from Chalmers University of Technology

    Author : Zulfiqar H. Khan; Chalmers tekniska högskola.; Chalmers University of Technology.; [2012]
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bildanalys; Image analysis; Signalbehandling; Signal processing; Visual object tracking; anisotropic mean shift; particle filters; Bayesian tracking; consensus point feature correspondences; online learning of reference object; Riemannian manifold; covariance tracking; Gabor features; Grassmann manifold.;

  5. 3. Behavior Representation by Growing a Learning Tree

    University dissertation from Linköping, Sweden : Linköping University, Department of Electrical Engineering

    Author : Tomas Landelius; Linköpings universitet.; Linköpings universitet.; [1993]
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : The work presented in this thesis is based on the basic idea of learning by reinforcement, within the theory of behaviorism.
