We propose a novel approach to shape-based image retrieval that builds upon a similarity criterion which is based on the average point set distance. Compared to traditional techni...
A monotone distribution P over a (partially) ordered domain assigns higher probability to y than to x if y x in the order. We study several natural problems concerning testing pr...
Inspired by our past manual aspect mining experiences, this paper describes a random walk model to approximate how crosscutting concerns can be discovered in the absence of domain...
Recently the problem of dimensionality reduction has received a lot of interests in many fields of information processing. We consider the case where data is sampled from a low d...
We propose a novel boosting algorithm which improves on current algorithms for weighted voting classification by striking a better balance between classification accuracy and the ...
