Many object classes, including human faces, can be modeled as a set of characteristic parts arranged in a variable spatial con guration. We introduce a simpli ed model of a deforma...
We present a new type of multi-class learning algorithm called a linear-max algorithm. Linearmax algorithms learn with a special type of attribute called a sub-expert. A sub-exper...
Abstract. This paper presents novel dissimilarity space specially designed for interactive multimedia retrieval. By providing queries made of positive and negative examples, the go...
In a pattern classification setup, image segmentation is achieved by assigning each pixel to one of two classes: object or background. The special case of vessel segmentation is c...
In analogy to the representation of the standard probabilistic average as an expected value of a random variable, a geometric approach to aggregation is proposed. Several properti...
