This paper investigates how to parse (segment) facial components from face images which may be partially occluded. We propose a novel face parser, which recasts segmentation of fa...
Abstract. Feature selection has improved the performance of text clustering. In this paper, a local feature selection technique is incorporated in the dynamic hierarchical compact ...
Abstract— This paper explores the idea of neutrality in heuristic optimization algorithms. In particular, the effect of having multiple levels of neutrality in representations is...
Local binary pattern (LBP), fast and simple for implementation, has shown its superiority in face and palmprint recognition. To extract representative features, "uniform"...
Abstract. Today’s parallel computers with SMP nodes provide both multithreading and message passing as their modes of parallel execution. As a consequence, performance analysis a...
