In the design of multimedia systems, one of the important issues is how to deal with "Kansei" of human beings. The concept of "Kansei" in Japanese includes sev...
—This paper presents a novel method for 3D surface reconstruction that uses polarization and shading information from two views. The method relies on the polarization data acquir...
We consider the problem of learning to rank relevant and novel documents so as to directly maximize a performance metric called Expected Global Utility (EGU), which has several de...
Locality-Sensitive Hashing (LSH) and its variants are wellknown methods for solving the c-approximate NN Search problem in high-dimensional space. Traditionally, several LSH funct...
When labelled training data is plentiful, discriminative techniques are widely used since they give excellent generalization performance. However, for large-scale applications suc...
