The TREC files: the (ground) truth is out there
(Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), United States, 2011)
Traditional tools for information retrieval (IR) evaluation, such as
TREC’s trec_eval, have outdated command-line interfaces with
many unused features, or ‘switches’, accumulated over the years.
They are usually seen ...
Comparative Performance Evaluation of Image Descriptors Over IEEE 802.11b NoisyWireless Networks
(IEEE (Computer Society), 2011)
Abstract—In this paper we evaluate the image retrieval
procedure over an IEEE 802.11b Ad Hoc network, operating
in 2.4GHz, using IEEE Distributed Coordination Function
CSMA/CA as the multiple access scheme. IEEE 802.11 ...
Bag-of-visual-words vs global image descriptors on two-stage multimodal retrieval
(ACM SIGIR 2011, 2011)
The Bag-Of-Visual-Words (BOVW) paradigm is fast becoming a
popular image representation for Content-Based Image Retrieval
(CBIR), mainly because of its better retrieval effectiveness over
global feature representations ...
Dynamic two-stage image retrieval from large multimedia databases
(Elsevier, 2013)
Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) with global features is notoriously noisy, especially for image queries with low percentages of relevant images in a collection. Moreover, CBIR typically ranks the whole collection, ...
Fusion vs. Two-Stage for Multimodal Retrieval
(Springer, 2011)
We compare two methods for retrieval from multimodal collections.
The first is a score-based fusion of results, retrieved visually and textually. The
second is a two-stage method that visually re-ranks the top-K results ...
Accurate Image Retrieval Based on Compact Composite Descriptors and Relevance Feedback Information
(World Scientific Publishing Company, 2010)
In this paper a new set of descriptors appropriate for image indexing and retrieval is proposed.
The proposed descriptors address the tremendously increased need for e±cient content-based
image retrieval (CBIR) in many ...
DUTH at ImageCLEF 2011 Wikipedia Retrieval
(ImageClef, Wikipedia Retrieval Task, 2011)
As digital information is increasingly becoming multimodal, the days of single-language
text-only retrieval are numbered. Take as an example Wikipedia where a single topic
may be covered in several languages and include ...
www.MMRetrieval.net: a multimodal search engine
(Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), United States, 2010)
We introduce an experimental search engine for multilin-
gual and multimedia information, employing a holistic web
interface and enabling the use of highly distributed indices.
Modalities are searched in parallel, and ...
TsoKaDo: An Image Search Engine Performing Recursive Query Recommendation Based on Visual Information
(IARIA, 2012)
This paper tackles the problem of the user’s
incapability to describe exactly the image that he seeks by
introducing an innovative image search engine called TsoKaDo.
Until now the traditional web image search was based ...
A Fuzzy Rank-Based Late Fusion Method for Image Retrieval
(Springer-Verlag, 2012)
Rank-based fusion is indispensable in multiple search setups in lack
of item retrieval scores, such as in meta-search with non-cooperative engines.
We introduce a novel, simple, and efficient method for rank-based late ...
