This paper describes an approach to retrieve images containing specific objects, scenes or buildings. The image content is captured by a set of local features. More precisely, we ...
This paper proposes a query by humming method based on locality sensitive hashing (LSH). The method constructs an index of melodic fragments by extracting pitch vectors from a dat...
Cover song detection is becoming a very hot research topic when plentiful personal music recordings or performance are released on the Internet. A nice cover song recognizer helps...
Adaptive Memetic Algorithms couple an evolutionary algorithm with a number of local search heuristics for improving the evolving solutions. They are part of a broad family of meta...
Abstract. In constraint networks, the efficiency of a search algorithm is strongly related to the local consistency maintained during search. For a long time, it has been consider...
