We address the issue of measuring storage, or query load distribution fairness in peer-to-peer data management systems. Existing metrics may look promising from the point of view ...
In this paper, we address invariant keypoint-based texture characterization and recognition. Viewing keypoint sets associated with visual textures as realizations of point process...
We propose an unsupervised, probabilistic method for learning visual feature hierarchies. Starting from local, low-level features computed at interest point locations, the method c...
