Nearest neighbor (NN) classification assumes locally constant class conditional probabilities, and suffers from bias in high dimensions with a small sample set. In this paper, we p...
We present a novel selective blurring algorithm that mimics the optical distance blur effects that occur naturally in cameras and eyes. The proposed algorithm provides a realistic...
We present a distance measure between audio files designed to identify cover songs, which are new renditions of previously recorded songs. For each song we compute the chromagram...
Abstract. We present a fast spectral graph drawing algorithm for drawing undirected connected graphs. Classical Multi-Dimensional Scaling yields a quadratictime spectral algorithm,...
The power of the unaided, individual mind is highly overrated: The Renaissance scholar no longer exists. Although creative individuals are often thought of as working in isolation...
