An approach to target-based image retrieval is described based on on-line rank-based learning. User feedback obtained via interaction with 2D image layouts provides qualitative co...
Distance-based methods in machine learning and pattern recognition have to rely on a metric distance between points in the input space. Instead of specifying a metric a priori, we...
Typical content-based image retrieval (CBIR) solutions with regular Euclidean metric usually cannot achieve satisfactory performance due to the semantic gap challenge. Hence, rele...
In plenty of scenarios, data can be represented as vectors mathematically abstracted as points in a Euclidean space. Because a great number of machine learning and data mining app...
A good distance metric is crucial for many data mining tasks. To learn a metric in the unsupervised setting, most metric learning algorithms project observed data to a lowdimensio...
