It is a key to construct a similarity graph in graph-oriented subspace learning and clustering. In a similarity graph, each vertex denotes a data point and the edge weight represents the similarity between two points. There are two popular…
Local descriptors used in face recognition are robust in a sense that these descriptors perform well in varying pose, illumination and lighting conditions. Accuracy of these descriptors depends on the precision of mapping the relationship…
