Self-similarity is an attractive image property which has recently found its way into object recognition in the form of local self-similarity descriptors [5, 6, 14, 18, 23, 27] In...
Local Binary Pattern (LBP) has been widely used in texture classification because of its simplicity and computational efficiency. Traditional LBP codes the sign of the local diffe...
Local Coordinate Coding (LCC), introduced in (Yu et al., 2009), is a high dimensional nonlinear learning method that explicitly takes advantage of the geometric structure of the d...
We investigate when sparse coding of sensory inputs can improve performance in a classification task. For this purpose, we use a standard data set, the MNIST database of handwritte...
In this paper, we describe three different methods for the classification and annotation of medical radiographs. The methods were applied in the medical image annotation tasks of ...
