Object recognition systems need effective image descriptors to obtain good performance levels. Currently, the most widely used image descriptor is the SIFT descriptor that computes histograms of orientation gradients around points in an image. A possible problem of this approach is that the number of features becomes very large when a dense grid is used where the histograms are computed and combined...
The massive amount of financial time series data that originates from the stock market generates large amounts of complex data of high interest. However, adequate solutions that can effectively handle the information in order to gain insight and to understand the market mechanisms are rare. In this paper, we present two techniques and applications that enable the user to interactively analyze large...
Visual methods have been widely studied and used in data cluster analysis. Given a pairwise dissimilarity matrix D of a set of n objects, visual methods such as the VAT algorithm generally represent D as an n × n image I(D̃) where the objects are reordered to reveal hidden cluster structure as dark blocks along the diagonal of the image. A major limitation of such methods is their inability to highlight...
Numerous data mining methods have been designed to help extract relevant and significant information from large datasets. Computing concept lattices allows clustering data according to their common features and making all relationships between them explicit. However, the size of such lattices increases exponentially with the volume of data and its number of dimensions. This paper proposes to use spatial...
We propose novel algorithms for organizing large image and video datasets using both the visual content and the associated side-information, such as time, location, authorship, and so on. Earlier research have used side-information as pre-filter before visual analysis is performed, and we design a machine learning algorithm to model the join statistics of the content and the side information. Our...
