In this paper we introduce a block-based approach for ordinal co-occurrence matrices aimed at improving robustness of the basic ordinal co-occurrence. Earlier, we have introduced t...
The proliferation of video content on the web makes similarity detection an indispensable tool in web data management, searching, and navigation. We have previously proposed a com...
When given a small sample, we show that classification with SVM can be considerably enhanced by using a kernel function learned from the training data prior to discrimination. Thi...
In this work we compute the similarity of 3D faces using a set of eight contour curves. These contours were selected and matched using our 3D face matching framework. In previous ...
