We present a new statistical model for characterizing texture images based on wavelet-domain hidden Markov models. With a small number of parameters, the new model captures both th...
The paper considers an interactive search paradigm in which at each round a user is presented with a set of k images and is required to select one that is closest to her target. P...
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 order to enable scalable querying of graph databases, intelligent selection of subgraphs to index is essential. An improved index can reduce response times for graph queries si...
Video-on-demand (VOD) is a very promising multimedia application of the near future. In order for such a service to be commercially viable, efficient storage and retrieval schemes...
