In partial-duplicate image retrieval, images are commonly represented using Bag-of-visual-Words (BoW) built from image local features, such as SIFT. Therefore, the discriminative ...
Visual dictionaries are widely employed in object recognition to map unordered bags of local region descriptors into feature vectors for image classification. Most visual dictiona...
Extending recognition to uncontrolled situations is a key challenge for practical face recognition systems. Finding efficient and discriminative facial appearance descriptors is c...
Combining advantages of shape and appearance features, we propose a novel model that integrates these two complementary features into a common framework for object categorization ...
