Recent years have witnessed a dramatic increase in the quantity of image data collected, due to advances in fields such as medical imaging, reconnaissance, surveillance, astronomy...
It is a challenging and important task to retrieve images from a large and highly varied image data set based on their visual contents. Problems like how to fill the semantic gap b...
We present a robust elastic and partial matching metric
for face recognition. To handle challenges such as pose, facial
expression and partial occlusion, we enable both elastic

The randomness of iris pattern makes it one of the most reliable biometric traits. On the other hand, the complex iris image structure and the various sources of intra-class varia...
Sketches--data structures for probabilistic, duplicate insensitive counting--are central building blocks of a number of recently proposed network protocols, for example in the con...
