In this paper, an interactive image retrieval scheme using MPEG-7 visual descriptors is proposed. The performance of image retrieval systems is still limited due to semantic gap, w...
In this paper, we propose a shot classification method for action movies. Considering that motion characteristic is very important for semantic movie analysis, and it contains abu...
We propose a novel unsupervised learning algorithm to extract the layout of an image by learning latent object-related aspects. Unlike traditional image segmentation algorithms th...
