Most approaches to large-scale image retrieval are based on the construction of the inverted index of local image descriptors or visual words. A search in such an index usually results in a large number of candidates. This list of…
Given a linear regression setting, Iterative Least Trimmed Squares (ILTS) involves alternating between (a) selecting the subset of samples with lowest current loss, and (b) re-fitting the linear model only on that subset. Both steps are…
