Spoofing detection from a feature representation perspective by Tian, Xiaohai, Wu, Zhizheg, Xiao, Xiong, Chng, Eng Siong, Li, Haizhou

“…Six types of high-dimensional feature are employed. For each kind of feature, four different representations are extracted, i.e. the original high-dimensional feature, corresponding low-dimensional feature, the low- and the high-frequency regions of the original high-dimensional feature. …”

Gross anatomical features of the insular cortex in affective disorders by Takahashi, T, Sasabayashi, D, Yücel, M, Whittle, S, Suzuki, M, Pantelis, C, Malhi, GS, Allen, NB

“…However, currently it remains unclear whether patients with other neuropsychiatric disorders, such as affective disorders, also have this gross brain anatomical feature. Materials and methods: The macroscopic features of the insular cortex in 26 patients with bipolar disorder (BD), 56 with major depressive disorder (MDD), and control subjects for each clinical group (24 for BD and 33 for MDD) were assessed using magnetic resonance imaging. …”

Firm-Centered Approaches to Overcoming Semi-Peripheral Constraints by Avlijaš, S, Gartzou-Katsouyanni, K

Efficient additive kernels via explicit feature maps by Vedaldi, A, Zisserman, A

“…Large scale nonlinear support vector machines (SVMs) can be approximated by linear ones using a suitable feature map. The linear SVMs are in general much faster to learn and evaluate (test) than the original nonlinear SVMs. …”

The devil is in the details: an evaluation of recent feature encoding methods by Chatfield, K, Lempitsky, V, Vedaldi, A, Zisserman, A

“…A large number of novel encodings for bag of visual words models have been proposed in the past two years to improve on the standard histogram of quantized local features. Examples include locality-constrained linear encoding [23], improved Fisher encoding [17], super vector encoding [27], and kernel codebook encoding [20]. …”

Uncovering latent features in massive open online courses by Gillani, N

“…We use social network analysis and community detection to uncover the latent features of online discussions in MOOCs. We begin by using data from two successive instances of a popular business strategy MOOC to filter observed communication patterns and arrive at the "significant" interaction networks between learners. …”
