Recent studies in linear inverse problems have recognized the sparse representation of unknown signal in a certain basis as an useful and effective prior information to solve thos...
A novel automatic image annotation system is proposed, which integrates two sets of SVMs (Support Vector Machines), namely the MIL-based (Multiple Instance Learning) and global-fe...
In this paper, we propose to use the Colored Pattern Appearance Model (CPAM) as a content representation for video scene break detection. This model represents a scene by means of...
The difficulty inherent in schema matching has led to the development of several generic match algorithms. This paper describes how we adapted general approaches to the specific t...
In this paper we study the node distribution of an Rtree storing region data, like for instance islands, lakes or human-inhabited areas. We will show that real region datasets are...
