The paper presents a novel Wi-Fi fingerprinting system that uses Channel State Information (CSI) data for fine-grained pedestrian localization. The proposed system exploits the frequency diversity and spatial diversity of the features…

Robust local feature representations are essential for spatial intelligence tasks such as robot navigation and augmented reality. Establishing reliable correspondences requires descriptors that provide both high discriminative power and…

Let s = s_1 .. s_n be a text (or sequence) on a finite alphabet \Sigma of size \sigma. A fingerprint in s is the set of distinct characters appearing in one of its substrings. The problem considered here is to compute the set {\cal F} of…

We propose an approach for fingerprinting-based positioning which reduces the data requirements and computational complexity of the online positioning stage. It is based on a segmentation of the entire region of interest into subregions,…

The aim of fine-grained recognition is to identify sub-ordinate categories in images like different species of birds. Existing works have confirmed that, in order to capture the subtle differences across the categories, automatic…

We present a new method for image feature-extraction which is based on representing an image by a finite-dimensional vector of distances that measure how different the image is from a set of image prototypes. We use the recently introduced…

Fair clustering is a constrained variant of clustering where the goal is to partition a set of colored points, such that the fraction of points of any color in every cluster is more or less equal to the fraction of points of this color in…

Significant progress in many classes of materials could be made with the availability of experimentally-derived large datasets composed of atomic identities and three-dimensional coordinates. Methods for visualizing the local atomic…

Kernel-based clustering algorithms have the ability to capture the non-linear structure in real world data. Among various kernel-based clustering algorithms, kernel k-means has gained popularity due to its simple iterative nature and ease…

Among many techniques for indoor localization, fingerprinting has been shown to provide a higher accuracy compared to the alternative techniques. Fingerprinting techniques require an initial calibration phase during which site surveyors…

Existing deep embedding methods in vision tasks are capable of learning a compact Euclidean space from images, where Euclidean distances correspond to a similarity metric. To make learning more effective and efficient, hard sample mining is…

Human fingerprints serve as one unique and powerful characteristic for each person, from which policemen can recognize the identity. Similar to humans, many natural bodies and intrinsic mechanical qualities can also be uniquely identified…

Semantic segmentation consists of predicting a semantic label for each image pixel. While existing deep learning approaches achieve high accuracy, they often overlook the ordinal relationships between classes, which can provide critical…

Extracting informative image features and learning effective approximate hashing functions are two crucial steps in image retrieval . Conventional methods often study these two steps separately, e.g., learning hash functions from a…

Identification of suspects based on partial and smudged fingerprints, commonly referred to as fingermarks or latent fingerprints, presents a significant challenge in the field of fingerprint recognition. Although fixed-length embeddings…

Accurate and reliable building footprint maps are vital to urban planning and monitoring, and most existing approaches fall back on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for building footprint generation. However, one limitation of these…

We present a simple but effective method for automatic latent fingerprint segmentation, called SegFinNet. SegFinNet takes a latent image as an input and outputs a binary mask highlighting the friction ridge pattern. Our algorithm combines…

Model quantization helps to reduce model size and latency of deep neural networks. Mixed precision quantization is favorable with customized hardwares supporting arithmetic operations at multiple bit-widths to achieve maximum efficiency. We…

Ordinal embedding aims at finding a low dimensional representation of objects from a set of constraints of the form "item $j$ is closer to item $i$ than item $k$". Typically, each object is mapped onto a point vector in a low dimensional…
