A k-nearest neighbor multilabel ranking algorithm with application to content-based image retrieval
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2017 , Conference Paper)Multilabel ranking is an important machine learning task with many applications, such as content-based image retrieval (CBIR). However, when the number of labels is large, traditional algorithms are either infeasible or ... -
A kernel-based approach to MIMO LPV state-space identification and application to a nonlinear process system
( Elsevier B.V. , 2015 , Conference Paper)This paper first describes the development of a nonparametric identification method for linear parameter-varying (LPV) state-space models and then applies it to a nonlinear process system. The proposed method uses kernel-based ... -
A Kernel-Based PCA Approach to Model Reduction of Linear Parameter-Varying Systems
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2016 , Article)This brief presents a model reduction method for linear parameter-varying (LPV) systems using kernel-based principal component analysis (PCA). For state-space LPV models that are affine or rational in the scheduling variables ... -
A kernelized sparsity-based approach for best spectral bands selection for face recognition
( Springer Verlag , 2015 , Article)We study face recognition in unconstrained illumination conditions. A twofold contribution is proposed: First, the robustness of four state-of-the-art algorithms, namely Multi-block Local Binary Pattern (MBLBP), Histogram ... -
A Key Frame Based Video Summarization using Color Features
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2018 , Conference Paper)The rapid development of digital video has opened ways for several multimedia applications.
