—All sciences, including astronomy, are now entering the era of information abundance. The exponentially increasing volume and complexity of modern data sets promises to transfor...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) computing offers new opportunities for building highly distributed data systems. Unlike client-server computing, P2P can operate without central coordination and...
In many pattern recognition applications, high-dimensional feature vectors impose a high computational cost as well as the risk of "overfitting". Feature Selection addre...
A common design of an object recognition system has
two steps, a detection step followed by a foreground withinclass
classification step. For example, consider face detection
