The conventional histogram intersection (HI) algorithm computes the intersected section of the corresponding color histograms in order to measure the matching rate between two col...
It is possible to broadly characterize two approaches to probabilistic modeling in terms of generative and discriminative methods. Provided with sufficient training data the discr...
A new method for three dimensional (3D) genus-zero shape classification is proposed. It conformally maps a 3D mesh onto a unit sphere and uses normal vectors to generate a spheric...
In object recognition problems a two-stage system is usually adopted composed of a fast and simple detector and a more complex classifier. This paper studies a design of the secon...
We study hierarchical classification in the general case when an instance could belong to more than one class node in the underlying taxonomy. Experiments done in previous work sh...
