Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) is a popular feature extraction technique for face recognition. However, It often suffers from the small sample size problem when dealing with t...
1 We propose a principled method for designing high level features for photo quality assessment. Our resulting system can classify between high quality professional photos and low...
We investigate to what extent `bag of visual words' models can be used to distinguish categories which have significant visual similarity. To this end we develop and optimize...
We propose a new multiple instance learning (MIL) algorithm to learn image categories. Unlike existing MIL algorithms, in which the individual instances in a bag are assumed to be...

We present a higher-level visual representation, visual synset, for object categorization. The visual synset improves the traditional bag of words representation with better discr...
