: Classification methods are vital for efficient access of knowledge hidden in biomedical publications. Support vector machines (SVMs) are modern non-parametric deterministic clas...
Many Geographic Information System (GIS) applications must handle large geospatial datasets stored in raster representation. Spatial joins over raster data are important queries i...
We propose a scene classification method, which combines two popular methods in the literature: Spatial Pyramid Matching (SPM) and probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis (pLSA) mod...
The bidirectional texture function (BTF) describes texture appearance variations due to varying illumination and viewing conditions. This function is acquired by large number of m...
As the amount of textual information grows explosively in various kinds of business systems, it becomes more and more desirable to analyze both structured data records and unstruc...
