Current
Research Topics:
1. Sparse Representation for Computer Vision and Related Convex Optimization
Sparsity is ubiquitous.
Most high-dimensional data only occupy a tiny portion of their ambient Euclidean
space. Sparsity often brings the advantage of high noise/outlier resistance.
How to utilize the sparsity effectively, particularly for machine learning and
pattern recognition in computer vision, is still not well explored. As sparsity
is often depicted by the L1 norm, resulting in non-smooth and non-linear
optimization problems, we are also faced with computational difficulties. We
are pushing more applications of sparse representation in computer vision and
also solving the related optimization problems that we encounter.
2. GPGPU-Based Parallel Computing
To solve problems with
intense computation, distributed and parallel computing are the only choices.
Thanks to the standardization and stabilization of programming languages for
general purpose graphics processing unit (GPGPU), GPGPU based parallel
computing has become an accessible and powerful tool for general purpose
computing, especially numerical computing. We are using GPGPU to help solve the
optimization problems that we encounter. We also investigate how to adapt the
state-of-the-art numerical algorithms to GPGPU, by considering the architecture
of GPGPU.
3. Theories and Applications of Discriminant Analysis and Manifold Learning
Multi-class classification
is a long-existing yet much less studied problem in discriminant analysis.
Different from the traditional way of reducing the problem to multiple
two-class classification, we develop algorithms that work for multi-class
problems directly. They are derived by minimizing the multi-class Bayesian
error bounds, hence are more solid in theory. For manifold learning, we are
also introducing more advanced geometric concepts, e.g., semi-Riemannian
geometry and vector bundle, to help unify the existing methods and also propose
more effective feature extraction algorithms.
