In a typical content-based image retrieval (CBIR) system, query results are a set of images sorted by feature similarities with respect to the query. However, images with high fea...
In this paper we introduce the Generalized Bayesian Committee Machine (GBCM) for applications with large data sets. In particular, the GBCM can be used in the context of kernel ba...
