In real-world applications of visual recognition, many factors—such as pose, illumination, or image quality—can cause a significant mismatch between the source domain on whic...
—Reading text from photographs is a challenging problem that has received a signicant amount of attention. Two key components of most systems are (i) text detection from images a...

The supervised learning paradigm assumes in general that both training and test data are sampled from the same distribution. When this assumption is violated, we are in the setting...
The Bag-Of-Visual-Words (BOVW) paradigm is fast becoming a popular image representation for Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR), mainly because of its better retrieval effectiven...

Recent advances in coherent and convex demodulation have proven useful for analyzing and modifying the low-frequency envelope structure of speech. This paper reports the applicati...
— Many modern computer vision algorithms are built atop of a set of low-level feature operators (such as SIFT [1], [2]; HOG [3], [4]; or LBP [5], [6]) that transform raw pixel va...
In solving complex visual learning tasks, adopting multiple descriptors to more precisely characterize the data has been a feasible way for improving performance. These representa...
In modern multimedia databases, objects can be represented by a large variety of feature representations. In order to employ all available information in a best possible way, a joi...
