In multimodal function optimization, niching techniques create diversification within the population, thus encouraging heterogeneous convergence. The key to the effective diversif...
We present a discriminative model that casts appearance modeling and visual matching into a single objective for visual tracking. Most previous discriminative models for visual tra...
We introduce a novel approach to incremental e-mail categorization based on identifying and exploiting "clumps" of messages that are classified similarly. Clumping reflec...
We present a data structure enabling efficient nearest neighbor (NN) retrieval for bregman divergences. The family of bregman divergences includes many popular dissimilarity measu...
This paper introduces BoostMap, a method that can significantly reduce retrieval time in image and video database systems that employ computationally expensive distance measures, ...
