An Analytic Distance Metric for Gaussian Mixture Models with Application in Image Retrieval
Abstract. In this paper we propose a new distance metric for probability density functions (PDF). The main advantage of this metric is that unlike the popular Kullback-Liebler (KL)...

A particular Gaussian mixture model for clustering and its application to image retrieval
We introduce a new method for data clustering based on a particular Gaussian mixture model (GMM). Each cluster of data, modeled as a GMM into an input space, is interpreted as a hy...

Learning Distance Functions for Image Retrieval
Image retrieval critically relies on the distance function used to compare a query image to images in the database. We suggest to learn such distance functions by training binary ...
