This paper presents a new statistical image segmentation algorithm, in which the texture features are modeled by Symmetric Alpha-Stable (SαS) distributions. These features are ef...
Image mining presents special characteristics due to the richness of the data that an image can show. Effective evaluation of the results of image mining by content requires that ...
Tasks of data mining and information retrieval depend on a good distance function for measuring similarity between data instances. The most effective distance function must be for...
ct 8 For a specific set of features chosen for representing images, the performance of a content-based image retrieval (CBIR) system 9 depends critically on the similarity or diss...
The increasing complexity of summarization systems makes it difficult to analyze exactly which modules make a difference in performance. We carried out a principled comparison be...
