This paper presents a semi-supervised learning (SSL) approach to find similarities of images using statistics of local matches. SSL algorithms are well known for leveraging a larg...
Recent work has shown that visual attributes are a powerful approach for applications such as recognition, image description and retrieval. However, fusing multiple attribute scor...
