The proposed method firstly uses support vector machine (SVM) classifiers to learn an initial query concept. Then the proposed active learning scheme employs similarity measure to check the current version space and selects images with maximum expected information gain to solicit user's label. Finally, the learned query is refined based on the user's further feedback. With the combination of SVM classifier and similarity measure, the proposed method can alleviate model bias existing in each of them. Our experiments on several query concepts show that the proposed method can learn the user's query concept quickly and effectively only with several iterations.展开更多

A recent study showed that adapting the three weighting parameters in this first-order linear model with a discrete searching solver has a great potential in its c6nversion ability. In this paper, we present a two-step strategy to efficiently extend the parameter searching solver to a two-order multivariance polynomial model, as a sum of three subspaces. We show that the first subspace in the two-order model is the most important and the second one can be seen as a refinement. In the first stage of our model, the gradient correlation similarity （Gcs） measure is used on the first subspace to obtain an immediate grayed image. Then, Gcs is applied again to select the optimal result from the immettiate grayed image plus the second subspace-induced candidate images. Experimental results show the advantages of the proposed approach in terms of quantitative evaluation, qualitative evaluation, and algorithm complexity.展开更多

文摘The RGB2GRAY conversion model is the most popular and classical tool for image decolorization. A recent study showed that adapting the three weighting parameters in this first-order linear model with a discrete searching solver has a great potential in its c6nversion ability. In this paper, we present a two-step strategy to efficiently extend the parameter searching solver to a two-order multivariance polynomial model, as a sum of three subspaces. We show that the first subspace in the two-order model is the most important and the second one can be seen as a refinement. In the first stage of our model, the gradient correlation similarity （Gcs） measure is used on the first subspace to obtain an immediate grayed image. Then, Gcs is applied again to select the optimal result from the immettiate grayed image plus the second subspace-induced candidate images.
