This paper presents a new Multidirectional Binary Pattern (MBP) for face recognition. Different from most Local Binary Pattern (LBP) related approaches which cluster LBP occurrenc...
In this paper, a novel and efficient automatic image categorization system is proposed. This system integrates the MIL-based and global-featurebased SVMs for categorization. The IP...
— This paper aims at introducing a new design tool based on polynomial optimization, which can be used to obtain globally optimal designs for stable IIR filters, single-stage an...
We examine the theoretical and numerical global convergence properties of a certain "gradient free" stochastic approximation algorithm called the "simultaneous pertu...
The earth mover's distance (EMD) [16] is an important perceptually meaningful metric for comparing histograms, but it suffers from high (O(N3 log N)) computational complexity...
