Ranking algorithms, whose goal is to appropriately order a set of objects/documents, are an important component of information retrieval systems. Previous work on ranking algorith...
This paper presents a novel method for efficient boundary based shapes matching and retrieval in presence of occlusion. In this method, the geometric and topological information o...
How do people make sense of a video based on viewing a few frames of that video? What elements constitute the "visual gist" in their minds? Answers to these questions wi...
In Biomedical research, the ability to retrieve the adequate information from the ever growing literature is an extremely important asset. This work provides an enhanced and genera...
Motivated by sensor networks, we consider the fusion storage of correlated sources in a database, such that any subset of them may be efficiently retrieved in the future. Only st...
