In the past, quantized local descriptors have been shown to be a good base for the representation of images, that can be applied to a wide range of tasks. However, current approac...
A key ingredient in the design of visual object classification
systems is the identification of relevant class specific
aspects while being robust to intra-class variations. Whil...
Recent research literature on sensor network databases has focused on finding ways to perform in-network aggregation of sensor readings to reduce the message cost. However, with t...
