Abstract In this paper, we describe a novel approach to intrinsic plagiarism detection. Each suspicious document is divided into a series of consecutive, potentially overlapping â€...
In this paper we present two contributions to improve accuracy and speed of an image search system based on bag-of-features: a contextual dissimilarity measure (CDM) and an effici...
Many natural image sets are samples of a low-dimensional manifold in the space of all possible images. When the image data set is not a linear combination of a small number of bas...
The Hausdorff distance between two sets of curves is a measure for the similarity of these objects and therefore an interesting feature in shape recognition. If the curves are alg...
A facility has to be located within a given region taking two criteria of equity and efficiency into account. Equity is sought by minimizing the inequality in the inhabitant-facil...
