Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) is one of the most active research areas in recent years. Many visual feature representations have been explored and many systems built. Howev...
We introduce a technique for exploring multi-layered images by scraping arbitrary areas to determine meaningful relationships. Our system, called Wetpaint, uses perceptual depth c...
In an interactive classification application, a user may find it more valuable to develop a diagnostic decision support method which can reveal significant classification behavior...
