Upcoming Talk: kNN Search and CBIR

Posted by eduardovalle on Friday, May 8, 2009

I’ve been invited by Prof. Francisco Pelaez and Prof. Camila Barione of the Centre of Mathematics Computing and Cognition of the Federal University of ABC to give my talk on kNN Search and CBIR (Content Based Image Retrieval).

I will discuss my past work, showing the three methods I’ve proposed during my thesis on high-dimensional multimedia indexing on large databases. But I also discuss some of my new research pursuits, related to the use of very discriminant local descriptors, like SIFT, on complex semantic queries, which require generalisation.

The talk, in Portuguese, will be on Tuesday May 26, at the Block B, room A801 of the Federal University of the ABC, which is located at the Rua Santa Adélia, 166, Santo André — SP, Brazil, CEP 09210-170. Their phone number is +55 11 4996-3166.
