In this work, we systematically study the problem of event recognition in unconstrained news video sequences. We adopt the discriminative kernel-based method for which video clip s...
A common approach in structural pattern classification is to define a dissimilarity measure on patterns and apply a distance-based nearest-neighbor classifier. In this paper, we i...
During the last years, the use of string kernels that compare documents has been shown to achieve good results on text classification problems. In this paper we introduce the appl...
