In patch-based object recognition, using a compact visual codebook can boost computational efficiency and reduce memory cost. Nevertheless, compared with a large-sized codebook, it...
The exploration of multidimensional scalar fields is commonly based on the knowledge of the topology of their isosurfaces. The latter is established through the analysis of critic...
Structural semantics are fundamental to understanding both natural and man-made objects from languages to buildings. They are manifested as repeated structures or patterns and are...
Controlled experiments with novice treemap users and real data highlight the strengths of treemaps and provide direction for improvement. Issues discussed include experimental res...
