The recognition of facial gestures and expressions in image sequences is an important and challenging problem. Most of the existing methods adopt the following paradigm. First, fa...
In this paper we introduce a block-based approach for ordinal co-occurrence matrices aimed at improving robustness of the basic ordinal co-occurrence. Earlier, we have introduced t...
The proliferation of video content on the web makes similarity detection an indispensable tool in web data management, searching, and navigation. We have previously proposed a com...
When given a small sample, we show that classification with SVM can be considerably enhanced by using a kernel function learned from the training data prior to discrimination. Thi...
