We present a new histogram distance family, the Quadratic-Chi (QC). QC members are Quadratic-Form distances with a cross-bin χ2 -like normalization. The cross-bin χ2 -like normal...
In this paper, we presentan approach to clustering images for efficient retrieval using relative entropy. We start with the assumption that visual features are represented by prob...
Users of image databases often prefer to retrieve relevant images by categories. Unfortunately, images are usually indexed by low-level features like color, texture and shape, whi...
