We propose in this paper a general kernel framework to deal with database object retrieval embedded in images with heterogeneous background. We use local features computed on fuzz...

Abstract--The wavelet transform as an important multiresolution analysis tool has already been commonly applied to texture analysis and classification. Nevertheless, it ignores the...
Spam e-mail with advertisement text embedded in images presents a great challenge to anti-spam filters. In this paper, we present a fast method to detect image-based spam e-mail. U...
We propose a novel affine-invariant modeling of hand shapeappearance images, which offers a compact and descriptive representation of the hand configurations. Our approach combine...
In this paper, we introduce two new formulations for multi-class multi-kernel relevance vector machines (mRVMs) that explicitly lead to sparse solutions, both in samples and in nu...
