We investigate the properties of a metric between two distributions, the Earth Mover's Distance (EMD), for content-based image retrieval. The EMD is based on the minimal cost ...
Music query-by-humming is a challenging problem since the humming query inevitably contains much variation and inaccuracy. Many of the previous methods, which adopt note segmentat...
: This paper was motivated by the desire to improve the effectiveness of retrieving images on the basis of their color content by improving the Color Coherence Vector method. There...
Abstract. The paper describes a fast system for appearance based image recognition . It uses local invariant descriptors and efficient nearest neighbor search. First, local affine ...
A new algorithm is proposed for removing large objects from digital images. The challenge is to fill in the hole that is left behind in a visually plausible way. In the past, this...
