Image-based retrieval in large Earth observation archives is difficult, because one needs to navigate across thousands of candidate matches only with the proposition image as a guide. By using text as a query language, the retrieval system gains in usabili ...
Information retrieval (IR) systems such as search engines are important for people to find what they need among the tremendous amount of data available in their organization or on the Internet. These IR systems enable users to search in a large data collec ...
Mapping the technology landscape is crucial for market actors to take informed investment decisions. However, given the large amount of data on the Web and its subsequent information overload, manually retrieving information is a seemingly ineffective and ...
Retrieval systems are often shaped as lists organized in pages. However, the majority of users look at the first page ignoring the other ones. This presentation concerns an alterna- tive way to present the results of a query using network visualizations. ...
We present an iterative retrieval algorithm based on data constraint for ultrashort pulse characterization using dispersion scan (d-scan). The proposed algorithm is much faster and leads to a drastic reduction of retrieval times, but, compared to the stand ...
In the last decade, online social networks have enabled people to interact in many ways with each other and with content. The digital traces of such actions reveal people's preferences towards online content such as news or products. These traces often res ...
This paper presents a series of tests that were performed on a state-of-the-art real-time automatic speech recognition system for English, in a single-computer implementation. As the intention is to use the system for speech-based query-free document retri ...
Person retrieval largely relies on the appearance features of pedestrians. This task is rather more difficult in surveillance videos due to the limitations of extracting robust appearance features brought by the cross-view and cross-camera data with lower ...
Abstractive summarization has seen big improvements in recent years, mostly due to advances in neural language modeling, language model pretraining, and scaling models and datasets. While large language models generate summaries that are fluent, coherent, ...
Content-based image retrieval aims at substituting traditional indexing based on manual annotation by using automatically-extracted visual indexing features. Novel techniques are needed however to efficiently deal with the semantic gap (i.e. the partial ma ...
