Visual scene recognition deals with the problem of automatically recognizing the high-level semantic concept describing a given image as a whole, such as the environment in which the scene is occurring (e.g. a mountain), or the event that is taking place ( ...

Visual scene recognition deals with the problem of automatically recognizing the high-level semantic concept describing a given image as a whole, such as the environment in which the scene is occurring (e.g. a mountain), or the event that is taking place ( ...
Cascade-style approaches to implementing ensemble classifiers can deliver significant speed-ups at test time. While highly effective, they remain challenging to tune and their overall performance depends on the availability of large validation sets to esti ...
In this work a new method for automatic image classification is proposed. It relies on a compact representation of images using sets of sparse binary features. This work first evaluates the Fast Retina Keypoint binary descriptor and proposes imp ...

HMM state mapping with the Kullback-Leibler divergence as a distribution similarity measure is a simple and effective technique that enables cross-lingual speaker adaptation for speech synthesis. However, since this technique does not take any other potent ...
The sliding window approach is the most widely used technique to detect an object from an image. In the past few years, classifiers have been improved in many ways to increase the scanning speed. Apart from the classifier design (such as the cascade), the ...
Stable myoelectric control of hand prostheses remains an open problem. The only successful human–machine interface is surface electromyography, typically allowing control of a few degrees of freedom. Machine learning techniques may have the potential to re ...
This paper offers a methodological contribution for computing the distance between two empirical distributions in an Euclidean space of very large dimension. We propose to use decision trees instead of relying on standard quantification of the feature spac ...
A crucial feature of a good scene recognition algorithm is its ability to generalize. Scene categories, especially those related to human made indoor places or to human activities like sports, do present a high degree of intra-class variability, which in t ...
