Tasks of data mining and information retrieval depend on a good distance function for measuring similarity between data instances. The most effective distance function must be for...
Abstract. In this paper we propose a new distance metric for probability density functions (PDF). The main advantage of this metric is that unlike the popular Kullback-Liebler (KL)...
Similarity search leveraging distance-based index structures is increasingly being used for complex data types. It has been shown that for high dimensional uniform vectors with si...

A novel algorithm is proposed to learn pattern similarities for texture image retrieval. Similar patterns in di erent texture classes are grouped into a cluster in the feature spac...
A new scheme of learning similarity measure is proposed for content-based image retrieval (CBIR). It learns a boundary that separates the images in the database into two parts. Im...
