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 ...
A novel approach of combining cepstral features and prosodic features in language identification is presented in this paper. This combination approach shows a significant improvem...
In this paper, we introduce a novel vector quantization (VQ) scheme for distributing the quantization error equally among the quantized dimensions. Afterwards, the proposed VQ sch...
SIFT descriptor has been widely applied in computer vision and object recognition, but has not been explored in the field of handwritten Chinese character recognition. In this pap...
In forensics, the craniofacial reconstruction is employed as an initialization of the identification from skulls. It is a challenging work to develop such a system due to the ambi...
