A general model is proposed for studying ranking problems. We investigate learning methods based on empirical minimization of the natural estimates of the ranking risk. The empiric...
In this paper we propose a domain partitioning RankBoost approach for face recognition. This method uses Local Gabor Binary Pattern Histogram (LGBPH) features for face representat...
Local search is a specialization of the web search that allows users to submit geographically constrained queries. However, one of the challenges for local search engines is to un...
