In this paper, we present a scalable algorithm for indexing and retrieving images based on region segmentation. The method uses statistical clustering on region features and IRM (...
Finding the core members of a virtual community is an important problem in community analysis. Here we presented an simulated annealing algorithm to solve this problem by optimizi...
Integrity checking is an essential means for the preservation of the intended semantics of a deductive database. Incrementality is the only feasible approach to checking and can be...
This paper presents a technique for the automatic classification of vocal and non-vocal regions in an acoustic musical signal. The proposed technique uses acoustic features which ...
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...
