Sparse coding provides a class of algorithms for finding succinct representations of stimuli; given only unlabeled input data, it discovers basis functions that capture higher-level features in the ...

The brain is a coding machine: it translates physical inputs from the world into visual, olfactory, auditory, tactile perceptions via the mysterious language of its nerve cells and the networks which ...

Sparse coding is a hot area in the field of Deep Learning. Deep learning and sparse coding appears highly promising for increasing the accuracy of image classification and it enables a system to look ...

Digital video cameras have the capability to record in incredible detail, but saving all that data would take up a huge amount of space: how can we compress a video--that is, remove information--in ...

When is an int not an int? Network, on-disk, and USB data might be in a different byte order from your system’s native one. The “sparse” code checking tool lets you label and check that you’re ...
