The structural similarity (SSIM) metric and its multi-scale extension (MS-SSIM) evaluate visual quality with a modied local measure of spatial correlation consisting of three c...
An important research issue in multimedia databases is the retrieval of similar objects. For most applications in multimedia databases, an exact search is not meaningful. Thus, mu...
We assess the generative power of the mPoTmodel of [10] with tiled-convolutional weight sharing as a model for visual textures by specifically training on this task, evaluating m...
In this paper we address the problem of identifying a broad range of term variations in Japanese web search queries, where these variations pose a particularly thorny problem due ...
