Machine Learning for Multimedia Content Analysis (Multimedia Systems and Applications)

Springer, 2007

Challenges in complexity and variability of multimedia data have led to revolutions in machine learning techniques. Multimedia data, such as digital images, audio streams and motion video programs, exhibit richer structures than simple, isolated data items. A number of pixels in a digital image collectively conveys certain visual content to...

Hierarchical Voronoi Graphs: Spatial Representation and Reasoning for Mobile Robots

Springer, 2009

Voronoi graphs and their hierarchical extensions have become a widely used tool for deriving abstract spatial representations from environmental data. They are currently being studied and applied in several subfields of computer science such as AI and robotics, computational geometry, and geoinformatics.

This book investigates the...
