To exploit the similarity information hidden in the hyperlink structure of the web, this paper introduces algorithms scalable to graphs with billions of vertices on a distributed ...
As vision algorithms mature with increasing inspiration from the learning community, statistically independent pseudo random number generation (PRNG) becomes increasingly importan...
This paper presents a method for alignment of images acquired by sensors of di erent modalities (e.g., EO and IR). The paper has two main contributions: (i) It identi es an approp...
A cost-sensitive extension of boosting, denoted as asymmetric boosting, is presented. Unlike previous proposals, the new algorithm is derived from sound decision-theoretic princip...
Despite its intuitive appeal, the hypothesis that retrieval at the level of “concepts” should outperform purely term-based approaches remains unverified empirically. In addit...
