This paper presents a new way of thinking for IR metric optimization. It is argued that the optimal ranking problem should be factorized into two distinct yet interrelated stages:...
Information networks are widely used to characterize the relationships between data items such as text documents. Many important retrieval and mining tasks rely on ranking the dat...
Object detection in cluttered, natural scenes has a high
complexity since many local observations compete for object
hypotheses. Voting methods provide an efficient solution
to ...
Abstract. Model-based image interpretation extracts high-level information from images using a priori knowledge about the object of interest. The computational challenge is to dete...
Nadir point plays an important role in multi-objective optimization because of its importance in estimating the range of objective values corresponding to desired Pareto-optimal s...
