Recently Viola et al. [5] have introduced a rapid object detection scheme based on a boosted cascade of simple feature classifiers. In this paper we introduce a novel set of rotated haar-like features. These novel features significantly enrich the simple features of [5] and can also be calculated

Abstract. In this paper, we present a novel scale- and rotation-invariant interest point detector and descriptor, coined SURF (Speeded Up Ro-bust Features). It approximates or even outperforms previously proposed schemes with respect to repeatability, distinctiveness, and robustness, yet can

We address the problem of finding a subset of features that allows a supervised induction algorithm to induce small high-accuracy concepts. We examine notions of relevance and irrelevance, and show that the definitions used in the machine learning literature do not adequately partition the features

4 structures reveal novel features and multiple conformations

Recently, methods based on local image features have shown promise for texture and object recognition tasks. This paper presents a large-scale evaluation of an approach that represents images as distributions (signatures or histograms) of features extracted from a sparse set of keypoint locations

A study of mycobacterial transcriptional apparatus: identification of novel features in promoter elements.

-fidelity computer graphics objects using imperfectly-measured data from the real world. Our approach contains three novel features: an implicit integration method to achieve efficiency, stability, and large time-steps; a scale-dependent Laplacian operator to improve the diffusion process; and finally, a robust

representation in Static Single Assignment (SSA) form, with several novel features: a simple, language-independent type-system that exposes the primitives commonly used to implement high-level language features; an instruction for typed address arithmetic; and a simple mechanism that can be used to implement

medical ("Give me other images that contain a tumor with a texture like this one"), photo-journalism ("Give me images that have blue at the top and red at the bottom"), and many others in art, fashion, cataloging, retailing, and industry. We describe a set of novel features

Machine learning for text classification is the cornerstone of document categorization, news filtering, document routing, and personalization. In text domains, effective feature selection is essential to make the learning task efficient and more accurate. This paper presents an empirical comparison
