We present a novel expert-model of Query-Driven Locally Adaptive (QDLA) Fisher faces for robust face recognition. For each query face, the proposed method first fits local Fisher ...

In this paper we propose a new framework for modeling 2D shapes. A shape is first described by a sequence of local features (e.g., curvature) of the shape boundary. The resulting ...
AdaBoost and support vector machines (SVM) algorithms are commonly used in the field of object recognition. As classifiers, their classification performance is sensitive to affect...
1 A kernel determines the inductive bias of a learning algorithm on a specific data set, and it is beneficial to design specific kernel for a given data set. In this work, we propo...
This paper proposes a new generic object recognition system based on multi-scale affineinvariant image regions. Image segments are obtained by a watershed transform of the princip...
