In this paper we consider the problem of multi-object categorization. We present an algorithm that combines support vector machines with local features via a new class of Mercer k...

In the Support Vector Machines (SVM) framework, the positive-definite kernel can be seen as representing a fixed similarity measure between two patterns, and a discriminant func...
Previous work on Natural Language Processing for Information Retrieval has shown the inadequateness of semantic and syntactic structures for both document retrieval and categoriza...
