Modeling query concepts through term dependencies has been shown to have a significant positive effect on retrieval performance, especially for tasks such as web search, where rel...
We present a novel method for inferring three-dimensional shape from a collection of defocused images. It is based on the observation that defocused images are the null-space of ce...
A novel video retrieval tool based on MPEG-4 video object (VO) representation is presented. The algorithm extends the concept of edge potential functions (EPF), already used in sha...
