Local features and kernels for classification of texture and object categories: a comprehensive study
- International Journal of Computer Vision
, 2007
"... Recently, methods based on local image features have shown promise for texture and object recognition tasks. This paper presents a large-scale evaluation of an approach that represents images as distributions (signatures or histograms) of features extracted from a sparse set of keypoint locations an ..."

and learns a Support Vector Machine classifier with kernels based on two effective measures for comparing distributions, the Earth Mover’s Distance and the χ 2 distance. We first evaluate the performance of our approach with different keypoint detectors and descriptors, as well as different kernels
Semantic distance in WordNet: An experimental, application-oriented evaluation of five measures
- IN WORKSHOP ON WORDNET AND OTHER LEXICAL RESOURCES, SECOND MEETING OF THE NORTH AMERICAN CHAPTER OF THE ASSOCIATION FOR COMPUTATIONAL LINGUISTICS
, 2001
"... Five different proposed measures of similarity or semantic distance in WordNet were experimentally compared by examining their performance in a real-word spelling correction system. It was found that Jiang and Conrath 's measure gave the best results overall. That of Hirst and St-Onge seriously ..."

A survey of content based 3D shape retrieval methods
- Multimedia Tools and Applications
, 2008
"... Recent developments in techniques for modeling, digitizing and visualizing 3D shapes has led to an explosion in the number of available 3D models on the Internet and in domain-specific databases. This has led to the development of 3D shape retrieval systems that, given a query object, retrieve simil ..."

, such as solid models produced by CAD systems, or voxels models, enclose a volume properly. This paper surveys the literature on methods for content based 3D retrieval, taking into account the applicability to surface models as well as to volume models. The methods are evaluated with respect to several
Evolving Dynamical Neural Networks for Adaptive Behavior
- Adaptive Behavior
, 1992
"... We would like the behavior of the artificial agents that we construct to be as well-adapted to their environments as natural animals are to theirs. Unfortunately, designing controllers with these properties is a very difficult task. In this article, we demonstrate that continuous-time recurrent neur ..."

Several novel controllers have been evolved, including a chemotaxis controller that switches between different strategies depending
Developments in the Measurement of Subjective Well-Being
- Psychological Science.
, 1993
"... F or good reasons, economists have had a long-standing preference for studying peoples' revealed preferences; that is, looking at individuals' actual choices and decisions rather than their stated intentions or subjective reports of likes and dislikes. Yet people often make choices that b ..."

of Economic Yet another use of subjective well-being has been to provide an external check on economic indicators. For example, Nordhaus (1998) and What are economists to make of this enterprise? Can well-being be measured by a subjective survey, even approximately? In this paper, we discuss research on how
Rotation invariant distance measures for trajectories
- Proceedings of SIGKDD
, 2004
"... For the discovery of similar patterns in 1D time-series, it is very typical to perform a normalization of the data (for example a transformation so that the data follow a zero mean and unit standard deviation). Such transformations can reveal latent patterns and are very commonly used in datamining ..."

, such as rotation. In this work, we transform the positional information of moving data, into a space that is translation, scale and rotation invariant. Our distance measure in the new space is able to detect elastic matches and can be efficiently lower bounded, thus being computationally tractable. The proposed
Interacting at a Distance: Measuring the Performance of Laser Pointers and Other Devices
- CHI 2002, APRIL 20-25, 2002, MINNEAPOLIS
, 2002
"... It is difficult to interact with computer displays that are across the room. A popular approach is to use laser pointers tracked by a camera, but interaction techniques using laser pointers tend to be imprecise, error-prone, and slow. Although many previous papers discuss laser pointer interaction t ..."

This paper reports on two studies of laser pointer interactions that answer some of the questions related to interacting with objects using a laser pointer. The first experiment evaluates various parameters of laser pointers
Index-driven similarity search in metric spaces
- ACM Transactions on Database Systems
, 2003
"... Similarity search is a very important operation in multimedia databases and other database applications involving complex objects, and involves finding objects in a data set S similar to a query object q, based on some similarity measure. In this article, we focus on methods for similarity search th ..."

The main part of this article is dedicated to a survey of distance-based indexing methods, but we also briefly outline how search occurs in mapping-based methods. We also present a general framework for performing search based on distances, and present
A Evaluation Tool for Machine Translation: Fast Evaluation for MT Research

We define evaluation criteria which are more adequate than pure edit distance and we describe how the measure ..."
