This paper is concerned with the problem of definition search. Specifically, given a term, we are to retrieve definitional excerpts of the term and rank the extracted excerpts acc...
Recognition of object categories from their images is extremely challenging due to the large intra-class variations, and variations in pose, illumination and scale, in addition to...
A critical issue of applying Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) is both the singularity and instability of the within-class scatter matrix. In practice, particularly in image recog...
