Near-duplicate keyframes (NDK) play a unique role in large-scale video search, news topic detection and tracking. In this paper, we propose a novel NDK retrieval approach by explo...
Visual information has been shown to improve the performance of speech recognition systems in noisy acoustic environments. However, most audio-visual speech recognizers rely on a ...
This paper presents a semi-supervised learning (SSL) approach to find similarities of images using statistics of local matches. SSL algorithms are well known for leveraging a larg...
Image classification is a well-studied and hard problem in computer vision. We extend a proven solution for classifying web spam to handle images. We exploit the link structure of...
Modern CCD cameras are usually capable of a spatial accuracy greater than 1/50 of the pixel size. However, such accuracy is not easily attained due to various error sources that c...
