We propose a novel approach for ranking and retrieval of images based on multi-attribute queries. Existing image retrieval methods train separate classifiers for each word and he...
Distributed Constraint Optimization (DCOP) is useful for solving agent-coordination problems. Any-space DCOP search algorithms require only a small amount of memory but can be spe...
The instabilities of the medial axis of a shape under deformations have long been recognized as a major obstacle to its use in recognition and other applications. These instabilit...
The allowable computational complexity of video encoding is limited in a power-constrained system. Different video frames are associated with different motions and contexts, and s...
Supervised learning techniques for text classi cation often require a large number of labeled examples to learn accurately. One way to reduce the amountoflabeled datarequired is t...
