We propose a fast algorithm, EMD-L1, for computing the Earth Mover's Distance (EMD) between a pair of histograms. Compared to the original formulation, EMD-L1 has a largely si...
We present a machine learning approach for the task of ranking previously answered questions in a question repository with respect to their relevance to a new, unanswered referenc...
Abstract. This paper presents a prototype system for pedestrian detection on-board a moving vehicle. The system uses a generic two-step approach for efficient object detection. In ...
In this paper, we formulate the shape localization problem in the Bayesian framework. In the learning stage, we propose the Constrained RankBoost approach to model the likelihood ...
: Advances in data storage and image acquisition technologies have enabled the creation of large image datasets. In this scenario, it is necessary to develop appropriate informatio...
