Histograms of local appearance descriptors are a popular representation for visual recognition. They are highly discriminant with good resistance to local occlusions and to geomet...
Over the past ten years similarity measures based on intensity distributions have become state-of-the-art in automatic multimodal image registration. An implementation for clinical...
Recently SVMs using spatial pyramid matching (SPM)
kernel have been highly successful in image classification.
Despite its popularity, these nonlinear SVMs have a complexity

The popular bag-of-features representation for object recognition collects signatures of local image patches and discards spatial information. Some have recently attempted to at l...
In this paper, we present novel ridge regression (RR) and kernel ridge regression (KRR) techniques for multivariate labels and apply the methods to the problem of face recognition...
