This paper presents a formal framework for designing search algorithms which can identify target images by the spatial distribution of color, edge and texture attributes. The fram...
Anecdotal evidence suggests that story-level information is important for the speech component of video retrieval. In this paper we perform a systematic examination of the combina...
We propose an unsupervised method for evaluating image segmentation. Common methods are typically based on evaluating smoothness within segments and contrast between them, and the...
: The SIFT algorithm (Scale Invariant Feature Transform) proposed by Lowe [1] is an approach for extracting distinctive invariant features from images. It has been successfully app...
A key ingredient in the design of visual object classification
systems is the identification of relevant class specific
aspects while being robust to intra-class variations. Whil...
