In this paper, we propose a novel classification method, called local manifold matching (LMM), for face recognition. LMM has great representational capacity of available prototypes...
The goal of this paper is to study the image-concept relationship as it pertains to image annotation. We demonstrate how automatic annotation of images can be implemented on partia...
Decision-theoretic optimization is becoming a popular tool in the user interface community, but creating accurate cost (or utility) functions has become a bottleneck — in most c...
This paper presents a new approach for building semantic image indexing and retrieval systems. Our approach is composed of four phases : (1) knowledge acquisition, (2) weakly-super...
This paper presents an adaptive algorithm for learning the user profile. The user profile is learned incrementally and continuously based on user’s initial profile, his actions ...
