Adaptive near-duplicate detection via similarity learning
In this paper, we present a novel near-duplicate document detection method that can easily be tuned for a particular domain. Our method represents each document as a real-valued s...

How Good Is a Kernel When Used as a Similarity Measure?
Recently, Balcan and Blum [1] suggested a theory of learning based on general similarity functions, instead of positive semi-definite kernels. We study the gap between the learnin...

Similarity learning via dissimilarity space in CBIR
In this paper, we introduce a new approach to learn dissimilarity for interactive search in content based image retrieval. In literature, dissimilarity is often learned via the fe...
