This paper presents a general family of algebraic positive definite similarity functions over spaces of matrices with varying column rank. The columns can represent local regions ...
In this paper we propose a domain partitioning RankBoost approach for face recognition. This method uses Local Gabor Binary Pattern Histogram (LGBPH) features for face representat...
For some time now, image retrieval approaches have been developed that use low-level features, such as colour histograms, edge distributions and texture measures. What has been la...
Histograms are used in almost every aspect of computer vi-4 4 sion, from visual descriptors to image representations. Histogram Inter-5 5 section Kernel (HIK) and SVM classifiers ...
In this paper, we develop a general classification framework called Kullback-Leibler Boosting, or KLBoosting. KLBoosting has following properties. First, classification is based o...
