In this paper, we investigate the problem of answering top-k queries via materialized views. We provide theoretical guarantees for the adequacy of a view to answer a top-k query, ...
This study focuses on a recent paper "100% Accuracy in Automatic Face Recognition" published on Science, in which an "Average Face" is proposed and claimed to ...
In the context of object recognition, it is useful to extract, from the images, efficient indexes that are insensitive to the illumination conditions, to the camera scale factor ...
In this paper, a Bayesian LBP operator is proposed. This operator is formulated in a novel Filtering, Labeling and Statistic (FLS) framework for texture descriptors. In the framew...
Image quality assessment (IQA) is of great importance for many image processing applications. Some IQA indexes proposed recently more or less try to boost their performance to acc...
