A Color Similarity Measure for Robust Shadow Removal in Real Time
We introduce an approach for realtime segmentation of a scene into foreground objects, background, and object shadows superimposed on the background. To segment foreground objects...

Relaxational metric adaptation and its application to semi-supervised clustering and content-based image retrieval
The performance of many supervised and unsupervised learning algorithms is very sensitive to the choice of an appropriate distance metric. Previous work in metric learning and ada...
