When users access information from text, they engage in strategic fixation, visually scanning the text to focus on regions of interest. However, because speech is both serial and ...
Shape matching has many applications in computer vision, such as shape classification, object recognition, object detection, and localization. In 2D cases, shape instances are 2D c...
Kernel machines have been shown as the state-of-the-art learning techniques for classification. In this paper, we propose a novel general framework of learning the Unified Kernel ...
This paper reports results for the University of Maryland’s participation in CLEF-2005 Cross-Language Speech Retrieval track. Techniques that were tried include: (1) document ex...
Decision trees have been successfully used for the task of classification. However, state-of-the-art algorithms do not incorporate the user in the tree construction process. This ...
