This paper presents the approach used by the University of Alicante in the ImageCLEF 2004 adhoc retrieval task. This task is performed by multilingual search requests (topics) agai...
Advances in image acquisition and storage technology have led to tremendous growth in very large and detailed image databases. These images, if analyzed, can reveal useful informa...
This paper introduces a robust adaptive patches sampling technique. The method does not rely on the use of keypoints to extract local information but all information contained in ...
We investigate reducing the dimensionality of image sets by using principal component analysis on wavelet coefficients to maximize edge energy in the reduced dimension images. Lar...
Compressed domain image retrieval allows image indexing to be performed directly on the compressed data without the need of decoding. This approach hence provides a significant ga...
