— One of the central issues in Learning to Rank (L2R) for Information Retrieval is to develop algorithms that construct ranking models by directly optimizing evaluation measures ...
Similarity search in image database is commonly implemented as nearest-neighbor search in a feature space of the images. For that purpose, a large number of different features as ...
The automatic computation of features for content-based image retrieval still has difficulties to represent the concepts the user has in mind. Whenever an additional learning stra...
SVM based image retrieval suffers from the scarcity of labelled samples. In this paper, this problem is solved by incorporating prior knowledge into SVM. Firstly, some prior knowl...
