(IEEE Computer Society, 2008)
This paper surveys the most relevant research on combining Data Warehouse (DW) and Web data. It studies the XML
technologies that are currently being used to integrate, store, query, and retrieve Web data and their ...
Gender recognition from a partial view of the face using local feature vectors
(Springer Verlag, 2009)
This paper proposes a gender recognition scheme focused on local appearance-based features to describe the top half of the face. Due to the fact that only the top half of the face is used, this is a
feasible approach in ...
A Comparative Study of Simple Online Learning Strategies for Streaming Data
(World Scientific and Engineering Academy and Society (WSEAS), 2008)
Since several years ago, the analysis of data streams has attracted considerably the attention in various
research fields, such as databases systems and data mining. The continuous increase in volume of data and the ...
Influence of color spaces over texture characterization
(Instituto Politécnico Nacional (Mèxic). Centro de Investigación en Computación, 2008)
Images are generally represented in the RGB color space. This is the
model commonly used for most cameras and for displaying on computer
screens. Nevertheless, the representation of color images using this color space
has ...
Dante: A Self-Adapting Peer-to-Peer System
(Springer Verlag, 2008)
In this paper we introduce DANTE, an unstructured P2P
system in which the topology of the underlying overlay network can
be dynamically adapted to the system conditions. Such an adaption is
performed by the peers in an ...
Level-of-Detail Triangle Strips for Deforming Meshes
(Springer Verlag, 2008)
Applications such as video games or movies often contain deforming
meshes. The most-commonly used representation of these types of meshes consists in dense polygonal models. Such a large amount of
geometry can be efficiently ...
The Role of Face Parts in Gender Recognition
(Springer Verlag, 2008)
This paper evaluates the discriminant capabilities of face
parts in gender recognition. Given the image of a face, a number of
subimages containing the eyes, nose, mouth, chin, right eye, internal face
(eyes, nose, ...
Safe and Economic Re-Use of Ontologies: A Logic-Based Methodology and Tool Support
(Springer Verlag, 2008)
Driven by application requirements and using well-understood
theoretical results, we describe a novel methodology and a tool for modular ontology design. We support the user in the safe use of imported symbols and in the ...
Data Reduction Method for Categorical Data Clustering
(Springer Verlag, 2008)
Categorical data clustering constitutes an important part of
data mining; its relevance has recently drawn attention from several researchers.
As a step in data mining, however, clustering encounters the
problem of large ...
On the Complementarity of Face Parts for Gender Recognition
(Springer Verlag, 2008)
This paper evaluates the expected complementarity between
the most prominent parts of the face for the gender recognition task.
Given the image of a face, five important parts (right and left eyes, nose,
mouth and chin) ...
