This paper presents a new approach to ranking relevant images for retrieval. Distance in the feature space associated with a kernel is used to rank relevant images. An adaptive qu...
For the discovery of similar patterns in 1D time-series, it is very typical to perform a normalization of the data (for example a transformation so that the data follow a zero mea...
This paper presents a new wavelet based retrieval approach based on Spherically Invariant Random Vector (SIRV) modeling of wavelet subbands. Under this multivariate model, wavelet...
In this paper, a new type of metric that defines the similarity between musical audio signals is proposed. Based on the spectral flatness criterion, those metrics achieve low co...
Background: Similarity of sequences is a key mathematical notion for Classification and Phylogenetic studies in Biology. It is currently primarily handled using alignments. Howeve...
