Many strategies for similarity search in image databases assume a metric and quadratic form-based similarity model where an optimal lower bounding distance function exists for fil...
The encoding process of image vector quantization (VQ) is very heavy due to it performing a lot of k-dimensional Euclidean distance computations. In order to speed up VQ encoding,...
Our participation in the ImageCLEF Wikipedia retrieval task aims to study the efficiency of using two contextual factors in image retrieval: metadata which contains specific infor...
