چکیده

The need for efficient methods for archiving and retrieving personal digital photo collections arises due to a significant increase in the number of digital images and videos that people have to manage. We propose a semantic face matching approach for managing consumer photographs based on semantic face attributes. These attributes are organized as a semantic face graph (derived from a 3D generic face model) containing facial components such as eyes and mouth in the spatial domain. We align the semantic facial components in the semantic face graph with the extracted facial features in a given image. Aligned facial components are transformed to a feature space spanned by Fourier descriptors of facial components for face matching. The semantic face graph allows face matching based on selected facial components. Our experimental results demonstrate that the proposed semantic representation of the face is useful for face matching and visualization (e.g., generating facial caricatures).

An Improved Semantic Schema Matching Approach

Schema matching is a critical step in many applications, such as data warehouse loading, Online Analytical Process (OLAP), Data mining, semantic web [2] and schema integration. This task is defined for finding the semantic correspondences between elements of two schemas. Recently, schema matching has found considerable interest in both research and practice. In this paper, we present a new impr...

Centralized Clustering Method To Increase Accuracy In Ontology Matching Systems

Ontology is the main infrastructure of the Semantic Web which provides facilities for integration, searching and sharing of information on the web. Development of ontologies as the basis of semantic web and their heterogeneities have led to the existence of ontology matching. By emerging large-scale ontologies in real domain, the ontology matching systems faced with some problem like memory con...

Face Shape Classification Based on Region Similarity, Correlation and Fractal Dimensions

In this paper, we have presented a new idea for face shape classification based on the three techniques such as facial region similarity, correlation and fractal dimensions. The human face is described by different semantic attributes like shape, color and texture. The semantic description of the object attributes helps in searching the object by its contents. The face shape similarity is descr...
