In this paper we propose a novel approach to introducing semantic relations into the bag-of-words framework. We use the latent semantic models, such as LSA and pLSA, in order to d...
The Gaussian kernel has played a central role in multi-scale methods for feature extraction and matching. In this paper, a method for shaping the filter using the local image stru...
We show that histograms of keypoint descriptor distances can make useful features for visual recognition. Descriptor distances are often exhaustively computed between sets of keyp...
We present a method for spotting words in the wild, i.e., in real images taken in unconstrained environments. Text found in the wild has a surprising range of difficulty. At one en...
