Most recent class-level object recognition systems work with visual words, i.e., vector quantized local descriptors. In this paper we examine the feasibility of a dataindependent ...
Generalized Belief Propagation (gbp) has proven to be a promising technique for performing inference on Markov random fields (mrfs). However, its heavy computational cost and large...
Abstract-- This paper presents a novel approach using combined features to retrieve images containing specific objects, scenes or buildings. The content of an image is characterize...
Point clouds are sets of points in two or three dimensions. Most kernel methods for learning on sets of points have not yet dealt with the specific geometrical invariances and pra...
Abstract. In this paper, we present a statistical approach for the automatic generation of dialogs by means of a user simulator. This technique can be used to generate dialogs with...
