چکیده

Recently, not only the person and things, but also words are imported by internationalization and informationization, and the scene using the loanword is increasing. However, these expressions are hard to understand for a child and the elderly person. Therefore, when such an expression is used for sentences, it might be hindered to understand entire sentences. Moreover, because an original word is omitted, it is likely to become the same expression as other words. Therefore, the alphabet abbreviation often has the polysemy. In this paper, a method of extracts an alphabet abbreviation from a sentence and judges the meaning of the expression is proposed. This method selects a correct meaning from two or more meanings of the alphabet abbreviation that suit for sentences, judging by using Wikipedia and Earth Mover’s Distance. Moreover, a correct meaning is judged by the association mechanism, using an original knowledge base that defines the concept of the word. The accuracy of the proposed method was 74%.

Tracking and Recognizing People in Colour using the Earth Mover’s Distance

This paper proposes a method that tracks, and recognizes people in indoor scenes. Background subtraction and foreground silhouette analysis are used to detect people. The colour of each person’s clothes is used as a distinguishing feature for the purpose of tracking and recognizing people. Clothing colour is extracted using histograms on a luminance and perceptually uniform chrominance colour s...

Video-Based Face Recognition Using Earth Mover's Distance

In this paper, we present a novel approach of using Earth Mover’s Distance for video-based face recognition. General methods can be classified into sequential approach and batch approach. Batch approach is to compute a similarity function between two videos. There are two classical batch methods. The one is to compute the angle between subspaces, and the other is to find K-L divergence between ...

Eatrh Mover’s Distanceに基づくText-Based Image Retrieval

In this report, we propose a method of Text-Based Image Retrieval(TBIR) using Earth Mover’s Distance(EMD). Our approach uses EMD to combine textual and visual features into one semantic space, to improve the performance of TBIR. We compare our method with four conventional methods including LSI and PLSI. The results show our method is superior to others in average precision. We also applied an ...

Spatial color image retrieval without segmentation using thumbnails and the Earth Mover's Distance

We introduce a spatial color image retrieval method which does not include any segmentation step. This method relies on small image thumbnails and the Earth Mover’s Distance (EMD). We then derive an unsupervised matching criterion using an a contrario approach. Experiments are performed on a database of illuminated manuscripts.

Video-Based Face Recognition Using a Metric of Average Euclidean Distance

This paper presents a novel approach for video-based face recognition. We define a metric based on an average 2 L Euclidean distance between two videos as the classifier. This metric makes use of Earth Mover’s Distance (EMD) as the underlying similarity measurement between videos. Earth Mover’s Distance is a recently proposed metric for geometric pattern matching and it reflects the average gro...
