We describe a method for predicting query difficulty in a precision-oriented web search task. Our approach uses visual features from retrieved surrogate document representations (...

The dramatic growth in the number and size of on-line information sources has fueled increasing research interest in the incremental subspace learning problem. In this paper, we pr...
We present here Extended Markov Tracking (EMT), a computationally tractable method for the online estimation of Markovian system dynamics, along with experimental support for its ...
Most of the prior work in biometric literature has only emphasized on the issue of feature extraction and classification. However, the critical issue of examining the usefulness of...
This paper presents a new approach for video clip retrieval based on Earth Mover’s Distance (EMD). Instead of imposing one-to-one matching constraint as in [11, 14], our approach...
