A large family of shape comparison methods is based on a medial axis transform combined with an encoding of the skeleton by a graph. Despite many qualities this encoding of shapes ...
In this paper, a novel approach for contour-based 2D shape recognition is proposed, using a recently introduced class of information theoretic kernels. This kind of kernels, based...

In this paper we define a novel similarity measure between examples of textual entailments and we use it as a kernel function in Support Vector Machines (SVMs). This allows us to ...
This paper investigates statistical performances of Support Vector Machines (SVM) and considers the problem of adaptation to the margin parameter and to complexity. In particular ...
Abstract. Over the last decade several prediction methods have been developed for determining structural and functional properties of individual protein residues using sequence and...
