We present a taxonomy for local distance functions where most existing algorithms can be regarded as approximations of the geodesic distance defined by a metric tensor. We categor...
Data collection for both training and testing a classifier is a tedious but essential step towards face detection and recognition. It is a piece of cake to collect more than hundre...
Although it is usually assumed in many pattern recognition problems that different patterns are distinguishable, some patterns may have inseparable overlap. For example, some faci...
