Abstract--This paper presents a novel method for automatically classifying consumer video clips based on their soundtracks. We use a set of 25 overlapping semantic classes, chosen ...
In Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI), a collection of documents is often pre-processed to form a sparse term-document matrix, followed by a computation of a low-rank approximation to...
This paper presents a comparison of three computational approaches to selectional preferences: (i) an intuitive distributional approach that uses second-order co-occurrence of pre...
Object recognition is challenging due to high intra-class
variability caused, e.g., by articulation, viewpoint changes,
and partial occlusion. Successful methods need to strike a...
The field of information retrieval still strives to develop models which allow semantic information to be integrated in the ranking process to improve performance in comparison to...
