How should we design visual presentations to explain how a complex system works? One promising approach involves multimedia presentation of explanations in visual and verbal format...
Finding similar images in a large database is an important, but often computationally expensive, task. In this paper, we present a two-tier similar-image retrieval system with the...
We study the problem of learning to rank images for image retrieval. For a noisy set of images indexed or tagged by the same keyword, we learn a ranking model from some training e...
In this paper, we present a novel multiple kernel method to learn the optimal classification function for visual concept. Although many carefully designed kernels have been propose...
Optimally designing the location of training input points (active learning) and choosing the best model (model selection) are two important components of supervised learning and h...
