We describe a new method for query completion for Bollywood song search without using query logs. Since song titles in nonEnglish languages (Hindi in our case) are mostly present ...
This paper concerns learning and prediction with probabilistic models where the domain sizes of latent variables have no a priori upper-bound. Current approaches represent prior d...
This paper describes a skeletonization process for grayscale or color images based on the diffusion of the color gradient vectors by using a simple iterative regularization scheme...
