Image classification or annotation is proved difficult for the computer algorithms. The Naive-Bayes Nearest Neighbor method is proposed to tackle the problem, and achieved the stat...
Tracking multiple objects is important in many application domains. We propose a novel algorithm for multi-object tracking that is capable of working under very challenging conditi...
