Learning Texture Similarity with Perceptual Pairwise Distance
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we demonstrate how texture classification and retrieval could benefit from learning perceptual pairwise distance of different texture classes. Textures as represented by certain image features may not be correctly compared in a way that is consistent with human perception. Learning similarity helps to alleviate this perceptual inconsistency. For textures, psychological experiments were shown to be able to construct perceptual pairwise distance matrix. We are going to show how this distance information could be utilized in learning similarity by Support Vector Machines for efficient texture classification and retrieval.

Composite Kernel Optimization in Semi-Supervised Metric
Machine-learning solutions to classification, clustering and matching problems critically depend on the adopted metric, which in the past was selected heuristically. In the last decade, it has been demonstrated that an appropriate metric can be learnt from data, resulting in superior performance as compared with traditional metrics. This has recently stimulated a considerable interest in the to...
متن کاملSupervised Machine Learning based Medical Image Annotation and Retrieval
This paper presents the approaches and experimental results of image annotation and retrieval in our first participation of ImageCLEFmed 2005. In this work, we investigate a supervised learning approach to associate low-level global image features with their high level visual and/or semantic categories for image annotation and retrieval. For automatic image annotation, we represent input images...
متن کاملUsing Long-Term Structure to Retrieve Music: Representation and Matching
We present a measure of the similarity of the long-term structure of musical pieces. The system deals with raw polyphonic data. Through unsupervised learning, we generate an abstract representation of music the “texture score”. This “texture score” can be matched to other similar scores using a generalized edit distance, in order to assess structural similarity. We notably apply this algorithm ...

متن کاملPerceptual Texture Space Improves Perceptual Consistency of Computational Features
Perceptual consistency is important in many computer vision applications. Unfortunately, except for color, computational features and similarity measurements for other visual features are not necessarily consistent with human's perception. This paper addresses three critical issues regarding perceptually consistent texture analysis: (1) development of perceptual texture space, (2) assessment of...
