- Kernel machines
- Hierarchical modular architectures and hybrid systems
- Combination of neural networks and Hidden Markov models
- Multiple classifier systems and ensemble methods
- Probabilistic graphical models
- Deep architectures
Applications in Pattern Recognition
- Image processing and segmentation
- Handwritten recognition and Document analysis
- Sensor-fusion and multi-modal processing
- Feature extraction, dimensionality reduction
- Clustering and vector quantization
- Speech and speaker recognition
- Data, text, and web mining
- Bioinformatics/Cheminformatics
