Most product search engines today build on models of relevance devised for information retrieval. However, the decision mechanism that underlies the process of buying a product is...
We propose a partitioning scheme for similarity search indexes that is called Maximal Metric Margin Partitioning (MMMP). MMMP divides the data on the basis of its distribution pat...
This paper presents a robust object tracking method via a spatial bias appearance model learned dynamically in video. Motivated by the attention shifting among local regions of a ...
