Abstract. The expressiveness of a lot of image analysis algorithms depends on the question whether shape information is preserved during digitization. Most existing approaches to a...
Symbolic data analysis aims at generalizing some standard statistical data mining methods, such as those developed for classification tasks, to the case of symbolic objects (SOs). ...
In this paper we show how the complexity of performing nearest neighbor (NNS) search on a metric space is related to the expansion of the metric space. Given a metric space we loo...
Abstract. The paper describes a fast system for appearance based image recognition . It uses local invariant descriptors and efficient nearest neighbor search. First, local affine ...
We present the design and analysis of a customized access method for the content-based image retrieval system, Blobworld. Using the amdb access method analysis tool, we analyzed t...
