Similarity search is a fundamental operation for applications that deal with unstructured data sources. In this paper we propose a new pivot-based method for similarity search, ca...
The structural similarity (SSIM) metric and its multi-scale extension (MS-SSIM) evaluate visual quality with a modied local measure of spatial correlation consisting of three c...
In this paper, a new type of metric that defines the similarity between musical audio signals is proposed. Based on the spectral flatness criterion, those metrics achieve low co...
Abstract. The retrieval of objects from a multimedia database employs a measure which defines a similarity score for every pair of objects. The measure should effectively follow th...
We investigate the problem of approximate similarity (nearest neighbor) search in high-dimensional metric spaces, and describe how the distance distribution of the query object ca...
