Conventional approaches to image annotation tackle the problem based on the low-level visual information. Considering the importance of the information on the constrained interaction among the objects in a real world scene, contextual information has been utilized to recognize scene and object categories. In this paper, we propose a Bayesian approach to region-based image annotation, which integrates...
Making the semantic description and automatic semantic annotation of the image which contains rich contents and intuitive expression is a research subject that is challenging. It is a key technology of realizing fast and effective image retrieval and a research focusing on cross media mining. Also it has great application value in various kinds of fields. This paper studies and discusses image media...
Here an efficient fusion technique for automatic face recognition has been presented. Fusion of visual and thermal images has been done to take the advantages of thermal images as well as visual images. By employing fusion a new image can be obtained, which provides the most detailed, reliable, and discriminating information. In this method fused images are generated using visual and thermal face...
This paper presents a projection model to fuse the scores of a visual face verification system and an infrared face verification system. Essentially, the model consists of an arbitrarily number of linear projection vectors with randomly permuted elements. An equal error rate formulation is next adopted to learn the linear coefficients for projection. The learned model is consequently used for prediction...
The strategies for the preservation of historical documents can include their digitization, which is an effective way to make them publicly available while preventing degradation of the original sources. The Arquivo Publico Mineiro (APM), the Archives of the State of Minas Gerais, has a collection of historical photographs from Brazil, and some of them have been digitized. The availability of digital...
