متن کاملEatrh 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 ...
متن کاملVideo-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...
