"Thank you" mail.

...

Kernel isomap is a very powerful technique to visualize these nonlinear relations among variables. Thank you for letting us use your MatLab code all these years.

I'm so glad and honored that somebody is enjoying my work...

Thank God.

p.s.) All the codes as well as the papers are available at my web page http://people.cs.tamu.edu/hchoi/

Paper accepted :)

Thank God!
I got a paper accepted to SSPR 2008.
Thank you all.

Chicago Travel, AAAI 08

I am going to Chicago for a week from this Saturday. AAAI 08.
I have two papers to be published... (both will be available on my homepage
right after the conference)


Heeyoul Choi, Seungjin Choi and Yoonsuck Choe,
"Manifold Integration with Markov Random Walks,"
 in Proc. 23rd Association for the Advanced of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI-08),
Chicago, Illinois, July 13-17, 2008.


Heeyoul Choi and Tracy Hammond,
"Sketch Recognition based on Manifold Learning,"
in Proc. 23rd Association for the Advanced of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI-08),
Chicago, Illinois, July 13-17, 2008.

Both are about manifold learning, though the first one is about integration
which is kind of a new concept and the second one is an application of
kernel Isomap to sketch data set.

Thank you,
- H. Choi
