International Journal of Computer VisionDistinctive Image Features from Scale-Invariant Keypoints
55,266 Citations2004David Lowe
This paper presents a method for extracting distinctive invariant features from images that can be used to perform reliable matching between different views of an object or scene and can robustly identify objects among clutter and occlusion while achieving near real-time performance.
Physics ReportsCommunity detection in graphs
11,324 Citations2009Santo Fortunato
A thorough exposition of community structure, or clustering, is attempted, from the definition of the main elements of the problem, to the presentation of most methods developed, with a special focus on techniques designed by statistical physicists.
IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine IntelligenceEvaluating Color Descriptors for Object and Scene Recognition
1,788 Citations2009Koen E. A. van de Sande, Th. Gevers +1 more
From the theoretical and experimental results, it can be derived that invariance to light intensity changes and light color changes affects category recognition and the usefulness of invariance is category-specific.
SCAN
821 Citations2007Xiaowei Xu, Nurcan Yuruk +2 more
A novel algorithm called SCAN (Structural Clustering Algorithm for Networks), which detects clusters, hubs and outliers in networks and clusters vertices based on a structural similarity measure is proposed.
Towards automatic extraction of event and place semantics from flickr tags
475 Citations2007Tye Rattenbury, Nathaniel Good +1 more
An approach for extracting semantics of tags, unstructured text-labels assigned to resources on the Web, based on each tag's usage patterns, and shows that the Scale-structure Identification method outperforms the existing techniques.
Generating diverse and representative image search results for landmarks
390 Citations2008Lyndon S. Kennedy, Mor Naaman
This work uses a combination of context- and content-based tools to generate representative sets of images for location-driven features and landmarks, a common search task.
Learning similarity metrics for event identification in social media
384 Citations2010Hila Becker, Mor Naaman +1 more
A variety of techniques for learning multi-feature similarity metrics for social media documents in a principled manner are explored and evaluation results suggest that the approach identifies events more effectively than the state-of-the-art strategies on which they are built.
2009 IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern RecognitionTour the world: Building a web-scale landmark recognition engine
346 Citations2009Yan-Tao Zheng, Ming Zhao +7 more
This paper leverages the vast amount of multimedia data on the Web, the availability of an Internet image search engine, and advances in object recognition and clustering techniques, to address issues of modeling and recognizing landmarks at world-scale.

World-scale mining of objects and events from community photo collections
260 Citations2008Till Quack, Bastian Leibe +1 more
This paper describes an approach for mining images of objects from community photo collections in an unsupervised fashion, and demonstrates this approach on several urban areas, densely covering an area of over 700 square kilometers and mining over 200,000 photos, making it probably the largest experiment of its kind to date.
IEEE Transactions on MultimediaNarrowing the semantic gap - improved text-based web document retrieval using visual features
246 Citations2002Rong Zhao, William I. Grosky
Experimental results show that LSI, together with both textual and visual features, is able to extract the underlying semantic structure of web documents, thus helping to improve the retrieval performance significantly, even when querying is done using only keywords.
Event detection from flickr data through wavelet-based spatial analysis
216 Citations2009Ling Chen, Abhishek Roy
The effort in detecting events from Flickr photos by exploiting the tags supplied by users to annotate photos is presented, where a wavelet transform is employed to suppress noise and tags related with events are identified.
Inferring generic activities and events from image content and bags of geo-tags
