This paper introduces a feature based method for the fast generation of sparse 3D point clouds from multiple images with known pose. We extract sub-pixel edge elements (2D positio...
Traditionally, the Universal Background Model (UBM) is viewed as the background model of the entire acoustic feature space. We propose a novel interpretation of the UBM model, and...
Conventional Gabor representation and its extracted features often yield a fairly poor performance in retrieving the rotated and scaled versions of the texture image under query. ...
Feature selection for unsupervised tasks is particularly challenging, especially when dealing with text data. The increase in online documents and email communication creates a nee...

Scalable similarity search is the core of many large scale learning or data mining applications. Recently, many research results demonstrate that one promising approach is creatin...
